I have a WHITE machine. It is just like this one and in the same color. They were made in Japan (I think by Singer) around 1945. YOU ARE GOING TO LOVE IT when you get the wiring fixed! It is a real workhorse. Also, did you notice on the front base that there is a knob so that you can raise and lower the feed dogs? It has 3 settings. This is really a pretty heavy duty sewing project machine. ENJOY IT!

Now that is a different color machine! I just found one that is a metalic gold like a gold car paint but it is the actual color of the machine as I looked it up online. Have fun fixing it up and sewing on it.
