The info I gleaned was that it was one of 3500 made which included the same machine made of aluminum so it would be lighter weight. So interesting what you learn when you research!
It is not a light machine at all. Probably about the same weight as my 201 with the table
. It sews like a dream after getting the tension issue fixed and the stitch length were I want it. IMO, these vintage/antique machines are the best. I like them so much better than the modern Brother I had prior to getting the 201 which was the first vintage machine I acquired. I think I need a Featherweight to complete the collection.
