It is possible that the pdf is in error. Having a New National made by New Home from the early 1940s, I know how hard it is to read serial number--as seen at New National - New Home and New Home Vintage Sewing Machines Club It looks like someone else has a NHR113XXX at https://www.quiltingboard.com/vintag...ml#post5841721 however, that person hasn't been on since.

From what I can tell, there might not be too much difference between an NH and a NHR. There is a manual for the NH at http://ismacs.net/newhome/new-home-s...e-manuals.html It looks like the NH serial numbers would include your number and it is a Rotary.
