    I have a 66-16 that was my grandmother's that I inherited after she passed. It is also in the same cabinet and the same fitting and such is with her. I have named her Ginny after my grandmother Virginia. I have cleaned her up but have not taken the time to sew on her. Mine is a 1955. Lord only knows how many thousands of miles of thread my grandmotrher had sewn with her.

    I couldn't have put it better.

    Also 1952 is the year the Queen came to the throne. Your machine and the Queen can celebrate their Diamond Jubilee together.
