A very lucky find and still in nice shape.

I have one exactly like it. Mine is from 1934, only difference I can spot is the knee lever, slighly differently shaped. I had mine rewired, kept the original motor and speed controller, and it has behaved very well since.

I have to give you one warning (in case you are new to this model). When you slide the bobbin case to the left, there's a screw in the lever holing it all in place. Don't touch it with a screw driver unless you read the service manual in advance. In stead; slide the bobbin cover completely off the machine, the end of the lever lifts up and towards you and realeases the bobbin case. It will give access to clean all parts from top and under the base of the machine.
