Hi I just got my first antique machine. Singer 66 red eye in mint condish! My cabinet is defferent than the one pictured, 7 drqwers instead of five and a bar with SINGER in gold accross the middle. Her name is Miss Fran and I love her. I'm still learning to "treadle" smoothly, lots of jerks and stops LOL. I love the feel of her and know we're going to be good friends for a long time. My younger ladies will have to wait for me while she and I get aquainted.
All of the gilding and red paint are intact, how do I care for it?
