SEWMOR 202 Blue ........ Toyota
MORSE 200 ................... Diamond
Wow, I didn't know I had 8 clones ...... they must be replicating themselves while I'm not looking.
There are literally hundreds of badge names with many many manufactures. Some marked their machines, some didn't. I've found those that are marked are generally of better quality than those that are unmarked.
10X,
I've got to get me a machine marked "Made in Occupied Japan". I don't have one of those yet.
