I think what most interested me was the "Rebuilt Singer Machine" decal - I've never seen that before.
During the WWII, no new sewing machines were being produced. So many shops "rebuilt" or refurbished older machines. They motorized them, sometimes installed the Revco reverse on them, applied new "Singer" decals...even sometimes on other brands. There are some Singer clones out there that have the Singer logo on them due to this, but construction and location of serial number shows they are a different brand.
