Here is my latest purchase. Found this machine in a used furniture shop for $25.
The tension assembly doesn't look original. The motor is a Phaff motor. It was in a cabinet, but it was a recent cabinet from Sears. So I left the cabinet, didn't feel like carting it all the way back to South Texas.
The serial number is B1299706. I thought it was strange that there is no singer badge on it. Is that common? I am still so new to this stuff, not sure if this was a good buy or not. I did like the way it looked though. The condition is really good.
