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!
I saw one like yours in the picture at a local flea mkt, it has the case, and a table for $175. I thought it was too high of a price?
