I applied to Needlebar and was granted access but my password doesn't work and I'm "not authorized" to change it. (And yes I wrote an email to Alan which is still yet to be answered). So, if anyone can shed light on my machine or when it was made, or if you have one and want a digital copy of the user manual, let me know. I'll make the manual available to any member of this site for no charge. ~scott
My DH baught me a new electric Domestic sewing machine in 1959. After using it for 20 some yrs. I thought I wanted a newer machine, so I sold it. Ever since I have been sorry, but now I don't have room for more machines, but I would just love to see one again. When I saw Domestic on this thread , I just perked right up but yours is a treadle. Do you know if this was a machine made by the White co.? I think if the one I had is still around, it probably still works.
