Question Plaza Sewing Machine

Has anyone ever heard of this machine? I think electric was put into to at a later time.
Thank you!
Stefanie

I think I've seen one of these recently (like, on eBay). Are you in Australia?

Wow Beautiful Machine!!

It is possible the original brand name was painted over on my machine.

looks like my Vindex Special - mine has a very messed up table. I put a steering wheel spinner on it and let kids play with it.

That machine is named Donna Donor. She has a few parts missing but I love her anyway. She has kept lots of Slant-O-Matic machines alive. She still has some good parts left. She cost me $25 but she has saved me way over that much.

HI I have recently come across this machine in it's original case and I was wondering if you found out any information on it? A search of the web doesn't seem to leac me anywhere but here. It's a beautiful machine.
