She's a real beauty....those decals are in great condition, and they just glow!!
AH HA!!!!! So ..... you're the one that got that machine. I was kinda watching it cos it is soooooooo purty, but I didn't bid on it.
Since we seem to both be bidding on GW perhaps we should exchange bidder names so we don't compete with each other ...... um too much anyway.
There's one on GW right now we bid on. We're out bid but that's subject to change. I don't wanna list it here, might give somebody ideas ..... LOL
OK, as for your question:
In Miriam's thread;
You've just gotta love the 'Little Old Ladies' (3/4 size or smaller vintage machine)

on page 3 I posted my Minnesota ~B~ and said I thought it might be a 3/4 sized machine. My reasoning was the same as yours. It's pretty small in the harp area. But Miriam and Mizkaki started running some measurements by me and it's actually closer to a full sized machine than a 3/4 size. Since yours looks really close to the same size as my Minnesota I'll be it measures out as a full size too.
