There is a lot of info on this board about vintage sewing machines - somewhere there is a gallery of pictures too.
I gave my DIL a Singer 503 and she totally fell in love with the machine and with sewing. She wasn't at all slighted that I got her an old machine. Kids these days think different than we do I guess. She named her's after her grandma Margaret.
