Compac Electric Sewing Machine
#12
I can remember the sewing machine my Mom used when I was growing up in the fifties and sixties. It was such a pretty turquoise and it said Compac on the side. I've never seen another one and have never found one online. Mom is 83 and has no idea what ever happened to it. Sure wish I had it!!

I have one. I haven't had it very long. Here is the link to what I posted about it on the QB. http://www.quiltingboard.com/vintage...c-t191513.html
I really like it. It sews really nicely and is pretty quiet compared to my other machines. I haven't found a website on them but I do know it was made by Brother. Is it similar to the machine you have or are looking at? I have a manual with it f you have questions. Maybe I can help.

Sorry, but I can't seem to figure out how to add a picture of my Compac. It's sleek, shiny, and black. I test drove it in the store, today I plan on sewing on it at home It was originally purchased on 9-25-1951 in downstate Flint, MI. If anyone can help me upload the pics, I'd be more than happy to show it off.

Try looking at this website: ISMACS International. I have not been able to add websites or pictures to this board.
But if you can bring up this site, it tells about different sewing manchines and and has manuals as well.

Thanks! I'm going to check it out. Thankfully it did come with the manual.

posting a picture
Sandyms,
When you make a posting choose the "Go Advanced" tab. When that comes up, scroll down until you see,"Manage Attachments", choose that one and you can download your pictures.
