Lord, have mercy! Where was this auction? Who owned all the machines?
(edit) Okay, went back and read and saw the post that told this auction was in MO... Was this a private collector's stash, or stuff from an antique store?
Private collector's stash. Plus old car stuff, wood working things, tractor things and hundreds of manuals for many different things EXCEPT sewing machines. There were several shuttle machines including some Davis' which the antique guy was drooling over. Many of the machines that used shuttles had shuttles in them. I did feel like I was in a fabric store. Which way do I turn to see/feel all the pretties and how many can I afford????? My DH and I did set a max amount to pay for one of the 301s b/c there is one I'd pay lots for, above the set limit, b/c it comes with a manual, a nice case and 3 boxes iof attachments plus about 20 bobbins.
