Looking at a coffin top
Here are a few pics of a 27 in a coffin top. Serial number looks like 1898. The sides of the irons say Singer but I find it odd that the back does not. My 29-3 irons are the same way, just curious if anyone can shed any light on the missing back logo.
I'm awaiting the seller to give me an asking price. I'm a little nervous that they think it's rare and valuable. Their ad says "$0.00 or best reasonable offer".
The machine head is only fair but the cabinet looks pretty good. I have a gorgeous, near perfect, Red Eye 66 that I'd consider to swap in.
It is time to thin the herd ...
