Hey, Sharon -- Thank you, yes it turned out to be a nice one, although I had no idea how nice when I bought it. The warranty papers were in the cabinet and say it was purchased in 1955. That's all I've got so far. It came with a bunch of presser feet, etc. Since doing some research, I've learned that Free-Westinghouse machines are highly regarded by some. I suppose this is really an Anker machine, though.
I have another machine that I'm working on, an older rotary. I'll post pictures of that one, too. Btw, do you know how to resize photographs for this forum? Mine are too large.
