They have another one that is a #66, Feb. 14, 1955 in a cabinet. Plus they still have his great grandmother's machine. Mom said they have a treadle on their enclosed porch too. Where I have been?? Seems like I just woke up to a whole new world.

My 128 has a foot pedal. I'm sure it's original to the machine.

This one doesn't have a pedal and it's listed as a 128. Could there be 2 different types of the 128? Or does yours have the lil thing on the side that makes it go instead of the foot pedal too? I'm new to all of this. I just put in the serial # and that's what it shows. Looking it up on the website it's inbetween the numbers and that's what is listed.

Looks like they are all good machines. I really like the 99, it is so simply designed and easy to use and maintain. My favorite machine for piecing. I think the "press thing on the side" that you are talking about is a knee control. In some ways they are easier than a foot pedal.....you don't have to keep hunting for it with your foot. Just lean your leg sideways.
