    Default shop goodwill could this be a FW knock off

    The size is a bit smaller then the FW but it doesn't have the extension.

    Kat,

    That looks to be a 99 clone.

    Most definitely not a featherweight. They say the weight is 33 lbs so it is not smaller than a FW either.

    It's also not a Singer. Bel Air is what is stated as the manufacturer.

    It is a very nice 3/4 size 99 clone.

    just looked on e-bay. There is one there asking $160.00 or best. Wish I could do this.

    Of course, the first clue is no flip up. Easy to confuse them.

    It sure does look pretty doesn't it? It may make someone a very nice smaller machine.
