Hi all. I am now the proud owner of a very, very heavy tabletop electric machine that dates to 1950 according to its serial number (Serial number AJ 398768). The wheel turns as smooth as butter and it came with tons of attachments (none for embroidery as far as I can tell), machine needles, original 128-13 manual, shuttle bobbins, and a beautiful case. The only thing that seems to be missing is the bentwood case key and the tray door. I've attached a picture of my new baby fresh from the auction. I haven't plugged it in yet. I want to oil it up well before I try to power it up and test the stitching.

Does anyone in here have the 128-13 that can post a picture of with the tray door? Can you post a picture for me? The ones I have seen for sale are missing what looks like a lock feature on the other 128 models that I have seen online.

Happy New Year vintage machine lovers!
