221, love the little machine and I have the card table with it.
And my big $5.00 purchase, a Riccar that you all helped me ID as a Model 15 Clone, it is Pink and I love it.
Betsy Ross Toy Machine
I have been fortunate that I have not paid much over $25 for most of the machines and that they all have been in really nice condition. The only one that required much cleaning was the Riccar and it was just dirty from years of dust accumulation.
The Betsy Ross I purchased on Ebay, the rest have come from Estate Sales that I went back to the last day and made a ridiculously low offer and it was accepted.
I just got an email back from her, she will not accept my $150.00 offer, at least for now. I will check back with her in a few weeks.
I have my eye on a Slant O Matic 500A and the Green Elna this week, both are local purchases. Also have 4 toys that I am watching on Ebay various models.
Again, thank you for your input, I really enjoy this site and hope to be able to help someone out in the future as I have helped.
