I'm going online now to see if I can find out what it is worth. I will need to replace the cord, its been chewed up by a critter and I'm not going to plug it up. Sparks would fly all over the place. When turning the wheel, it feels as smooth as butter. I'm sure it will run great when I get it fixed.

I hope you didn't have to pay by the pound for her...She looks like an anchor...but oh so pretty...
|
Don't you just love the simplicity of old machines? :wink:
|
Lovely model 15 clone... Lucky you!
|
Have fun with your new "baby". I'd like to find cool stuff like that at a garage sale.
|
Wow... I love the color too! This one looks like it's in fabulous condition.
|
Pretty! :)
|
Very pretty!
|
Congrats on your beautiful find.
|
Wow, she's a beauty! congrats!!
|
The sparks would only fly if it was plugged in and you thought you could re-wire your pooch. Use some black electrical tape to take care of that temporarily until you can get new wiring.
|
Great looking machine.... the color is beautiful.
|
How pretty!!
|
wow!!
i must not be hitting the good yard sales...lol beautiful treasure you found |
She sure is a beauty.
|
Why do I keep clicking on these posts? I just get so danged jealous! I had a blue one I got for $10 at a yard sale and I gave it to the thrift shop when we moved. I still am mad at myself!
|
She's a beauty!!!
|
It seems like everyone is looking for or getting these older machines are you planning on using them or just collecting??
|
Looks lovely! I thinkI need to hit up some yard sales..

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.
|

|

Beautiful!!! This is a work-horse!!! It looks just like the one my Mom had only her's was green. I so remember sewing on this when I was a teenager!!! Now my younger sister owns it....
and uses it to this day... What a great find!!!! :thumbup: |
I have a Morse and it looks just like your White,same color and all.I love mine,I do most of my sewing on it.They are great machines.Have fun with your new toy!!
|
Lucky you, I'm jealous, she's a beauty
|
She looks like she's in wonderful condition. Hope you can find the cord and get her humming along!
|
Great Find! You know, the more I see of these older machines, the more I'm happy to own a few. All of my vintage machines, including the two treadles are operable and sew very well. I enjoy using them. Makes me wonder why I spent so much money for a modern machine......However, saying that, my main machine also does embroidery and that was the motivation for purchasing it. But for everyday sewing and quilting....give me a Singer 301, featherweight, or my 115 treadle, or my White VS treadle, or.......sad isn't it, this collection addiction:)
|
What a beauty :D:D:D
|
This is the home version of my first machine. I had the industrial model. They are true work-horses. Enjoy!
|
Oh gosh...my Mom had a White for years, and made many outfits for a family of 8 on it. I learned to sew on a White. For a reliable stable machine you can't beat it.
|
Very nice find! I am sure you will have some great times together.
|
I think Janome machines are made by the White Co. but I could be wrong.
|
That is a beautiful machine.
|
Nice find, I used to have one like that, loved it.
|
Never seen one like that. LOVE IT!!!
