Most of the badges on Singers were brass...to find one of copper is somewhat unique, but not totally rare... :)

I haven't used mine in many years due to space and other new options. I do keep in mind that they have the best and most consistant stitch of all my machines and concider them an option when working several projects at the same time.

Beautiful...simply beautiful.....
When I was a young girl a neighbor lady passed away, and her daughter wanted me to have her old treadle....and I said at the age of 10, why would I want that old thing....one of my biggest regrets of my life...maybe one day ....
