My New Home is one of them, along with the Singer 9W, and the Davis. I hope Miz Johnny reads this post, as she or Billy probably could shed some light on your machine.

I have been researching all morning and I found that Davis did indeed make the Standart machines. Could you tell me how long a Davis long needle is? I measured the one in my machine and it is 1 3/4 ". thanks.
