Linda, I love it!!

I wished you could have taken one from the front so that everyone can see the embossed areas that are on the machine. Did you know that the White Sewing Machine Company was the first manufacturer to use the "Wrinkle" finish and held a patent on it.

The anniversary of this model was bronzed and a lot of folks that have them today have ruined them by over polishing them to make them shine instead of keeping the patina.

The wrinkle finish didn't show up on the Singers until they were being refurbished by certain authorized manufacturers and then they started using it themselves in the latter 50's.
