why the Damascus Rotary was retired
I think I figured out why the Damascus Rotary was retired. Bertha had it, died, gave it to daughter who never used it in 30 years, and left it to her granddaughter. Bobbin case looks a bit peculiar. I like the bobbin cover tilt. After I oiled it up, it will spin 8 revolutions with a hand spin. Chicago plugs for the motor. It came with three broken needles. Pretty sure it is a National badge, but not sure what needle it wants.
