Need help with older Montgomery Ward machine
#1
This is what I found on it. R 24NS-1352 A, Model B. I think it's a Montgomery Ward but I can't seem to find anything on it. Maybe I just don't know how to do it. I googled the the serial # but nothing comes up. Can anyone help me?
Thanks

Glad you ladies are having good luck with your Mongomery Wards machines. I bought a new one back in the 80's and it was a real lemon. Their shop couldn't even fix it and they wouldn't trade it for another one. Never shopped there, again. If we had owned a boat at the time, I would have let my better half use it for the anchor.

It's not just MW machines since the 80's. A lot of companies, including Singer , started using a lot of plastic in their machines and they just don't live up to the reputation of the older, metal, heavy as a brick, machines.

I'm going to get my Sister to take a picture of it. The table is a little beat up but fixable. The machine itself looks real good. It's a very dark brown and probably weighs 20-25 lbs without the table. I don't know what it's made of but it seems like cast iron to me :D It does need a bobbin case. The only thing on the machine is a small emblem with "MW" on it.
