If anyone's interested, there's a 1952 Singer 301 short bed, tan, for sale in my area. It's listed on a blog, but the blog belongs to a lady in my guild. She and her husband collect Singers and show them. The machine is pristine, has all attachments in an original box, and has a cradle avail. too. She's asking $280 US but that includes shipping. Here's the site:
