We discussed the CB thing a while back, here:http://www.quiltingboard.com/vintage...e-t216990.html

There's a "Singer Domestic" on my CL today, too. I see that sort of thing a lot, but usually they leave out the real brand name and just call it a Singer.

I really loved the all Caps on the Singer, they actually made an effort and still got it wrong.
