Time for another German machine - Frister and Rossmann transverse shuttle from 1937. The date is actually stamped on the underneath of the cover. Believe me, this machine weighs a ton, it's an absolute monster if you see it side by side with the Vesta. It's bliss to use, and of all my machines it winds the tightest most even bobbin. As for the porcelain handle, it keeps your hand nice and cool while you're sewing.
Note the seam guide in place
