I love it when people just want a good home for a machine. Very lovely.

SteveH, I love how you show each and every part of a machine. So nice. The machine is so pretty. Lucky you, and us for showing us. We may never see another one.

Beautiful, just beautiful. The paint on those irons is amazing. Is a wheel missing on the base?

Okay, this time I think I read everything carefully; do you know the year that this was manufactured?

Steve,

I believe that that type of shuttle is called a 'hybrid'.

Very beautiful machine and extra nice to use as a handcrank as well! I love the accessory box! The goldwork on the irons is just the icing on the cake.

Gorgeous sewing machine. You hit the motherload for goodies. The tin box is my favorite.
