    Gorgeous! I am really into Japanese SM's. Maybe because they are so easy to use AND so sturdy. I am working on a Mercury Electric Dial-O-Matic that is so awesome. Once I finish cleaning it up, I will post pics.

    I just bought this same machine and haven't been able to find out anything about it. The guy I bought it from said he got it from an estate sale. He rehabs old machines and sells them, but said he'd never seen one like this. We'll just keep searching!

    I just saw one of these machines at a sewing machine place. I left he, but it is calling to me. Maybe I ought to ask Santa for it.

    Oat - I have this machine myself and use it regularly. I received it from my grandmother who bought it brand new in 1958. I do have the original instruction manual and also the matching blue metal case that holds the attachments. The attachments manual is also here with me. The pictures you posted are exactly what I have, same model 303 other than mine is on a sewing machine table that stores the machine inside when not in use. And your serial number 4003 is slightly lower than mine. Let me know if I can help in any way to get you the information in the instruction book.

    Hi Jleigh,

    I also recently purchased one of these machines at a Garage sale for $1!. Serial Number 4589. But no instruction manual or attachments. Would love some help from the instruction book.

    Thanks so much

    Sorry I can't help you, but it's sure a beautiful machine. I'm sure that someone will be able to help you though.

    As soon as I can I will scan the entire manual and have it available for anyone who needs it. Not sure if there is somewhere here to post that on this site? Guess I will find that out when the time comes.
    I can send it directly to you either way.
