Well, DH lifted it on to the table!!! One linty machine - not terribly dirty. I love it - this is one very nice machine!!! A lot of thought went into it. There are some quirks but - well it was the 1950's and all those fancy stitches were new. I shot some pics. I figured out a few things. WOW!!! I wish for a manual. All I got was a sales brochure. The inner workings are similar to the Singer 319. There is a cam stack with 4 settings. There are loose disks - I have no idea where they go. The whole cam stack comes off. Unlike the 319 you can only choose one setting - well so far that is what I think. It is a bit easier to set the zz on this machine though. I should put an old Elna, a 319 and this Phoenix next to each other and compare the features. Here is a pic of the sales brochure. Very good condition BTW.

The second pic did not post so I deleted it.
