That looks similar to a White Rotary that I just restored. I paid $40 bucks for mine..

It's a 222,.. that's the open arm version. Quite rare. That's the going rate in Alberta as best I can tell. I've seen them from $800 - $1200 here.

Yep, I would love to find a 222, but I have never seen one for under $1,000. That is the going rate in my neck of the woods too for a FW free arm! They are pretty rare.

If it's really a 222 free arm, that's not a bad price. I wouldn't pay that for a 221, but might consider it for a 222!

The lowest price that I have ever seen for a Featherweight 222 in good shape with all its usual attachments, case and manual is $750 so this one isn't too ridiculous. They don't come up that often as there were far fewer 222's made.
