Cool! She's beautiful. I found an old White in a beautiful cabinet the other day. I fell in love with her and my husband bought her for me for Mother's Day. It is just the best feeling to find an old jewel and bring her back to life. Great find, hope you enjoy many hours of sewing on her.

Just a tip-----when you open your cabinet, open the door on the front first so the top will sit on top of the door. It will save the hinges and prevent damage to them.
Looks like my Mother's second machine and cabinet. Her first one was purchased in 1923.
