If the case was domed shaped and it was a little smaller than a full size machine, it would probably have been a Singer 99 which is referred to as a 3/4 machine. It is much heavier than the Featherweight. Also the 128s came in those domed cases and some Model 27's. The domed wooden case was popular for many older Singer models. As far as I know, all black Featherweights were in the black boxed cases.

Yes to Singer, black, silver scrolly plates, gold design etc.

However, the FWs that have been shown here seem to have black square box cases.

This one has a wooden case. The top being like an upside down "U".

So is it another version?
or what is it?

Please? and Thanks!
Did it look like this? This is a Model 99
