Too bad it's not local. Or maybe that's a good thing after all. . . For my wallet at least. Lol!

That's the machine my mother had. She wouldn't let me touch it though it wasn't working. Age 11, they left me home alone for a couple of hours. I cleaned the bobbin and oiled everything. When she got home I was sewing on it. Mine from then on. I have one but it's far from working, still I love it. Someday, I'll find a parts machine like that. Those hinges may be unique.
