If I remember rightly 221k is a Feather weight. Did they come as a treadle? The thrift store wants $80 for it with cabinet. Kathie
Kathie go look at the machine! No, FW's did not come as treadles, and YES the 221 is a FW! Wow, I wish I had time today so I could go look with you! I can't go, but do let us know what you find. Someone probably got the serial numbers wrong or it is a 221 someone modified to fit in a treadle! If that is the case I want it!
