Got a new "old" featherweight recently on Ebay. I cleaned it up a little, then sent it off to an expert that specializes in Featherweights. He cleaned, oiled, adjusted, repaired, polished and sent her home with a clean bill of health. I was lucky to also get the case w/two keys, the manual, button attachment and many other accessories.

This is Thelma
