    Went junking yesterday, and saw a coupling interesting machines that I had to take a picture of to share.......and last but not least I found a Featherweight. It is in beautiful, condition, it includes the case, attachments, even has some needles and the grease for the machine! The price on the machine was $500.00 Way to rich for me!. I'm into spending pennies not dollars. :D Anyway the store owner, said he would deal and could consider $300-350. Still way to rich for me. If anyone is interested here is the contact info:
    Antique Warehouse Mall, 2563 Summer Ave. Memphis, TN 38112 (901) 323-0600

    Awesome machines!! The top one is not a Singer, it's a Wheeler and Wilson #8...goes to show how fragile the decals are on a W&W...my machine still has them, but so many of them don't!
    Love that FW...but you were right...not worth $500 when you can get one on ebay for less, in just as good of shape!
