I live near Notre Dame and they no longer throw things away :cry: The students leave it in the dorm room and after they all leave the college collects the items and then has a HUGE yard sale. Granted the money goes to charity, but now they even charge you to get in to look at the items :shock:

It's not a featherweight. But, it is a cool find and you will have some fun fixing her up and using her. there is a group on yahoo that is a board to ask questions about singers. If You want it let me know, I will search it out for you.

OH how beautiful! A wonderful find! I love to dumpster dive in my own dumpster! My friend cleaned his car out, empied the garbage into my dumpster and found some speakers, hooked them up and now has back speakers in his van...I've found things in there too... :-)
