My hubby had seen a sewing machine case laying in a garbage pile in a mans yard for a long time. This man lived up in the woods in the rainy part of Oregon....loads of rain. The wooden case was waterlogged. He asked the guy if there was a machine in it, "yep", he says then my hubby asked if he could have it, "sure" he says, "take it" (not much of a talker). My husband opened it up, looked inside, and hurried right home. I have a Pink Atlas also! S262296 That case stunk so bad. The machine, thru some miracle, was like new although it stunk too until it aired out. We gave it a thorough cleaning and a new case. I was so excited to have it because I had seen this really flamboyant lady sewing dresses on one in a movie and had fallen in love with her machine. Little did I know I would own one someday. I have several machines but the Pink Atlas gets to do the job when I sew for my little grandaughter. Mine matches the second picture on page 1. Enjoy your machine!
