    Default Is anyone familiar with an Adler machine?

    When i found the way way overpriced Singer Sunday at the antique/consignment mall, they also had another machine.. the cabinet is in pretty bad shape. When I opened it up, it had an Adler machine, kind of a seafoam green color with an eagle and "Made in West Germany" on the front of it . I couldn't find a serial number, but the manual was for a model 189a. It had a few attachements, and uses cams for decorative stitches. I looked on the web but haven't found much about it. They didn't have it priced, so just curious if anyone knew anything about these machines.

    Great machines, but you have to be very careful that the belts are o.k. inside them. I believe they're a specialty size and cleated, and not made anymore.
