Decals - Missing or Just Dirty?
I inherited my great grandmother's Davis sewing machine. It isn't valuable, but it means a lot to me. It goes without saying that this machine was put to good use for many years. I remember my grandmother using it in my lifetime when she had something difficult to sew like leather. The machine needs some TLC. The cabinet is in fairly reasonable shape, and I have a lot if not all of the attachments, but some are rusted. However, the decals on the machine are completely black. If you stand at the right angle, you can see where they were and tell their shapes, and you can read the word "Davis." However, I don't know if they are just tarnished and dirty or totally missing. any ideas? Thanks in advance.
