    Nice. I think the "K" indicated is was made in Scotland. The decals look like Singer, but the name is different. Hope someone else has more info than I can provide.

    A quick Google search brought up some results for an "Aldens" sewing machine.

    Is it possible that's an S and not an A at the end?

    It's listed down a bit as a Singer look-a-like machine:

    A search on ALDENS brings up even more.
