This machine is unknown for sure. I picked it up in a thrift for 5.00 because it appealed to me but it has no good identifiers. In back underneath the motor it has a decal "Made in Italy" and it very strongly resembles a Necchi BC. It has similar elements to other machines in the Necchi family but nothing to identify it 100% as a true Necchi. For that reason I call it my Necchi clone. I have no idea what year it was produced either. It has a serial number, but I haven't had any luck finding out much about it.
My Featherweight produces straighter stitches and I don't have the 301 out to test right now. Ha~I KNOW it's the 301 you really want to know about though. heehee!
