In addition, there are handcranks perched here and there. The rest are in the basement, where I am struggling along trying to create a usable space.

None in the bathroom or kitchen!!
Wow... just wow. How do you dust them all? Maybe we should start a 'vintage sew machine horders' club? Billy and you can be honorary lifetime members, I should think. Oh wait... I guess that's what this thread is for, isn't it?! :D
