Beautiful....bet this sews like a dream. I have an old 1950's Pinnock (made in Australia) and it is an absolute treasure. It knocks spots off my 20 year old Singer and can sew through anything.

WOW!!! It's really pretty!! If it gets to heavy for you please send it my way!!!! :mrgreen: :lol: :thumbup:

What a find! But, having purchased my very first sewing machine in the 60's ( yes, I'm that old ), think it's older than the 60's. Do the books that came with it have any dates in them? I'm thinking late 40's to 50's. It's just a guess.
