The white table with the crackled finish was made in 1955 as a promotion item. There were several different bright colors to choose from. I worked for the factory who made them in K.C.,Mo. If I lived closer I would buy the machines only to get the cabinets. The cabinet with the Necchi sitting in it was made by the same company as well as the cabinet partially viewed in the rear. This makes me feel happy but sad. My family owned the company and 1955 was the year the factory was moved to Ar. So many years have passed, factory closed and everyone passed except a younger brother and myself. Tried for years to find an early Parsons cabinet and these are the first I have seen.
