    She's sweet, love the decals. I'm not one for coffin tops as a rule but this one is beautiful!

    What a steal.

    I think that there were at least 3 versions of the household-use straight-leg cabinets through the years. I’m aware of one with wooden legs, one with cast iron legs, and this one with pressed steel legs. I have one with wooden legs that I believe dates back to the 30s. I also have an industrial stand with straight pressed steel legs that I think dates to the late 30s. I don’t know which ones were offered when.

    Mine is pressed steel for sure and looks exactly like yours...even the wood cabinet. Interesting.

    Thanks, d...she's one of the first machines I got, and I really love her. We still have to rewire her motor before she can be used.

    MY FIRST SINGER!!
    Just picked this up at a local consignment store for $19.00 she has a hand crank along with shuttle and bobbins. I thought she looked like she was in pretty good shape considering her serial number is according to Singer website is from 1910.

    Really nice Holly! And SUPER price! Can't wait to see her when you get her cleaned up!
    One day, you'll only be a memory for some people. Do your best to be a good one.
