"New" Machine
From the serial number, I think this was manufactured in 1954. It looks almost as if it has never been used. The box is still very sturdy and has almost no blemishes on it. It seems to sew perfectly fine. I'm going to try to make my BOM on it this time and see what happens.
My MIL gave it to my husband the last time he visited because she doesn't sew "anymore". I've known her 23 years and had no clue she had EVER sewn. She has farmed it all out to other family members as long as I have known her.
