I got the deal of the century!
1 Attachment(s)
I called on 2 listings on Craigslist Sunday and got both machines and even though I paid what they were asking still feel I really got a deal.......The full size one is a 115 from 1919 with Tiffany decals some times called Gingerbread (got this from the internet search) paid $30 for it.
The featherweight is from 1927 and hadn't been used for a long time (all dried out) but got it cleaned, oiled and greased and it purrs. The case and attachment were in great shape with no musty odor! Paid $40 for it----the keys tto lock the case are even there1 |
Amazing purchases. Thank you for sharing this joy.

Wow, I would say you hit the jackpot of all jackpots. Beautiful machines.

Wonderful deals! I would double check the serial # on the featherweight, though. The first one was made in 1933, I think.
