I had my first job @ 17, first thing I bought was a Pfaff 362.It was 1957 it still works wonderful. Second one 1980 a Brother LS-1217. I think I paid $89.99. After DGM passed
they gave me her Singer. Can`t find the age on it, but she passed 1971 @ age 80. Then MDM_IN_L gave me her MOM`S. I can`t find the age but she passed 1956 @ age 79. I love each one and hope one of childern will too.
