Yes, it's a Superba Singer 12 clone in mother of pearl. Very good value for $175.

The Supurba was made by Wertheim

Here is some research:
http://www.sewalot.com/wertheim%20superba.htm
http://needlebar.org/main/makers/aus...eim/index.html
http://needlebar.org/cm/thumbnails.php?album=111

as with most German engineering these are some of the finest stitching machines ever made.
