Janice that machine is one of the reproductions made in Taichung, Taiwan. They started making the ND to NY machines in 1963, but I'd bet that machine is much newer - like in the 1980's. Those repro's, where they tried to copy the original decals, are kind of gaudy looking. Besides, the machine is not the workmanship/quality of the original.
