Hi everyone......here is a picture of a sewing maching my hubby bought for me at an auction many years ago. I think it he paid $40.00 for this along with lots of fabric and notions. I used the cabinet as more of an end table and didn't peak in until his weekend. I have all the attachments and the manual said it was purchased in July 1951. I haven't had the time to play with it yet, hoping to over the weekend......Does anyone know about this machine? I knew the lady who had it, and she had expensive taste, and the shop she purchased it from was a high end store as well. I can't wait to play with him....Thinking of calling him Russ, since my husband purchased it, and he is a rusty color.....

Russ looks very well kept...can hardly call him "used"!
Enjoy him!
