Model 27, commissioned June 28, 1911. Decals are Sphinx. You need a tire for the bobbin winder. Are the shuttle and bobbin there? For $5 you will have a lot of fun fixing her up. Good buy.

Thanks for this information! I just checked and yes they are there. I do not know much about these so I am going to have to do a lot of research. I'm guessing it does not have the Needle Up/Down feature though... ;)
