Although I cannot even begin to have the same command of sewing machine history as some of you out there (my historical interest has hitherto been in everything from musical instruments to architecture, design, society, music etc.) - I thought that my first individual post should be about something, which doesn't show up every day.
I just saw this old sewing machine on a Danish classifieds page, a Theodor Kjølbye (I have neither heard of the name nor the factory before), that to me looks like a Husqvarna Freja and some of the contemporary German high-arm machines with a touch more schwung. I would have wished for some close-ups, but the sellers probably didn't expect the pictures to end up on a specialist American forum ..
