I would see if a White Rotary plate fits. I need one too. They sell for about $15 on Ebay. Only problem is finding one old enough to be exact. Check out White Sewing Machine Parts on Ebay.

Buying a regular White plate may not work well. The White rotary plates extend out past the left edge of the machine. If it fit the opening, it would need to be trimmed.

Very pretty machine! Please post pics when you get her cleaned up

I like the medallion in the center. Were you able to approximate the date?

I see that you found a manual for the Florence Rotary. I just picked one up yesterday and I’m looking for a manual. Please share, where did you find it?

Probably the one you want is at http://pages.sewing-machine-manuals....924021724.html
Currently the print manuals are not available, so will have to download the pdf
"DOWNLOAD / PDF Florence Family Rotary sewing machine manual (smm2160pdf)"

I have a manual I'll be happy to scan and email you. Feel free to PM me your email address and I'll send it. I have a White Rotary I'm resorting right now. White Rotary, Florence Rotary, Mason Rotary and such were all made by White company.

shilohsr posted that in 2013 and hasn't posted much since. I don't think I'd wait for that answer. Maybe someone else could help.

Can anyone give me info on this machine, or any ideas of where I might locate that missing plate?
Thanks.
