I just found this part of the Board, so I'm hoping. She was like a time capsule. I have the owners manual, tools manual, all kinds of attachments, two shuttles, OLD needles, measuring tape--everything. All for $50.00 which was a bargin back then. I haven't tried to work her, but am anxious now to get her oiled and see about her.

Can anyone help???
Quiltdoctor, that is a beautiful cabinet and machine! Someone here should be able to help - Billy may know how to date the Damascus, I don't know where to find the dates for that machine, but a really nice set up!

Thanks for joining us!
