Lady called me today and said she had an old sewing machine for me if I wanted to come pick it up. About a 45 min drive for me. Well.....OF COURSE I WENT! When I got there she had these in her garage just "taken up space and collecting cobwebs". She gave me both of them! Singer 66 Serial AM078465 from 1955 and Sears Kenmore Model 158.14002 from 1971-72. Serial 0018082. I thought I was going after one old machine. Had no idea I was getting machines with cabinets. Excuse the cobwebs-haven't cleaned them yet. I also added this in the vintage section.
