Here is my Janome 1600 P-QC and my Janome 8077. You can see one of my singers hiding under a cover. I also have a Janome serger and a Singer from 1952 that runs like a top!

I took the pic of them side by side when I first got the 1600. Amazing what a couple inches of throat can do to the size.

I love them!

Just curious what is the serial number for the Singer 27 Pheasant you have. I have a Pheasant that was so far gone that I had to do a repaint and its now a candy rootbeer with 22KT gold leaf decals that I made. I am curious if it came from the same litter as mine. And how much of the color is still left on the decals?

Wow, seeing the pink flamingo reminded me of something i have here. I used to build signs for a living and made myself a couple of singer red s that light up, One is reverse lit and is about 8" tall the other is front lit and 18" tall. Hope you enjoy seeing them and ill get some pics of my machines up next. Chris

Lostn51, The serial # is L877970. The patten dates are 12-5-1882, 9-2-1885,7-19-1887, 8-21-1888, 1-13-1891. Why so many different patten dates? The colors are very clear. Pretty close to pristine in color condition.

That was during the industrial revolution and the "Patent Wars" Singer and all of the other sewing machine companies were always stealing each others Ideas so everytime a patent was running out they would reapply for the patent.

Your machine is a few years older than mine (by 9 years) but you have the most sought after and rarer decal pattern. It is a beautiful machine indeed!!
