I am now a proud owner of a 1938 221 singer feather weight got her at a flea market Saturday for $175 the man thought it was a 222 but I ran the serial number and wrong! Her name is Freebie because I got a gift of $200 (my birthday is today) so I call her Freebie sorry my DH is going to try later to send some pics I just had to brag along with every one else. I just love it.

Welcome to the club!

caspharm 05-23-2011 07:58 AM

Actually, a 222 would have been more, since they are rarer and are usually wired for use in the UK. Congratulations and welcome to Featherweights.
