I had one just like it...I scrapped it because it was so dang heavy!

Montgomery Ward...I might still have the book for the one I had.

Does yours have a model#?

Guess I should have added the serial (?) number.
R 24NS-1352 A Model B. All this for $10.00. Thanks.

just checked my book...mine had a more rounded face and was a Wards Supreme Reversable Rotary Sewing Machine. It was made during the 40s (war era) - had the same heavy grey metal which was used during the war time.

That's all I know.

Does it sew?? If not scrap metal is probably a good $$ cabinet is always worth refinishing!

Check with Lostn51 (Billy), or put this on the vintage machine thread. Billy is the resident expert- he knows all....

I'm pretty sure it was made by National (badged for MW), but that's about the limit of my knowledge.
