I've been looking, and so far the older walking feet have been Singer, and all side clamp. The concept of the walking foot has been around a long time (I have a veritcal feed Davis) but I don't think they were made as attachments on a regular basis until much later.

I know Singer came out with the Penguin foot pretty early on, but I don't see anything in between until they came out with the white one that is basically plastic.

Who knows - there may have been a walking foot for the top clamp machines, and it may be as rare as the penguin is - another fun thing to look for.
