Oh I get it! I was misunderstanding "face of the machine" vs "front side" LOL (please don't ask what I thought each meant)

I think I can't resist at least calling on the 15 tomorrow & then figure out how to explain to hubby that I am getting a 3rd sewing machine - and another old one at that! (my "current" 2 are a Singer Featherweight & a 403).

Oh, really??? Explaining number three is a problem??? Uh, try explaining number nine (which I still haven't done!!) and then we'll talk! LOL! I'm hoping my newest old machine is a 99..it looks like the one pictured, but not sure....I'll be letting you see it tomorrow!
Trish....these pics are for you...can't get them to you any other way...If you need different views, let me know...I'm not sure what "shape" yours is in, or even if this one is pristine. I think it is. But what do I know..this is the first I've ever seen them!! :lol:
