It's not worth a single penny, so you should just mail it to me to get it out of your way!!!
I don't know squat about vintage machines so I'm not going to be helpful here, I just came to drool over your really pretty machine. They sure don't make 'em like the used to...even that case is beautiful.

He didn't realize she still works because I haven't used her in a couple years.
It seems I was mistaken in the fact that not using an old machine to "save" her is the right thing to do.
Since so many of you work them hard and have good results I will have to put her to work once again.
Thanks again everyone for all the helpful info.

100 years old is antique (there's an actual standard set by US customs I believe). There is no official standard set for vintage but common practice is to follow what the car folks do which is (if I remember correctly) that 25 to 50 years is considered "classic" and 50 to 100 is considered "vintage".
