Billy;
I'm a fixing to blame you for me buying 2 old machines today. One is a Singer, made in 1924, that still has the original cord, in good shape, plus the curved cover. The cover doesn't smell and was really well taken care of by previous owners. The decals are mostly worn off but by looking at the remains, they were fairly plain. The other is a Davis. Neither is named as of yet and I'll post pics later along with more info.
