Seller just assumes that every "old" sewing machine is a "Singer" - did they look at the machine they were taking pics of?

At least it still has the t-shirt plate. Just because it says White Rotary doesn't mean it's not an old Singer. Come on, give the seller a break.

yea really I mean at least she used the serial number and looked up the year and model.

just think a 1935 model 569 singer had to have been a one off phototype machine $$$$$$$$$$.00

for that alone wins the Smok'n banana

Right now these sellers are Thinking of putting your tax dollars to Work

I can see there doing one dang fine paint job on all the rusty parts, on that 127/128 it's worth every cent of the best offer, there asking for. The inspection plate must still be in the paint dryer. yes I would say turning the handwheel the needle goes up and down meaning it works just great.

we don't need no stinking belt

The only thing NOS might have been the white paint.

that morse. I've seen quite a few other brands using that same tail fin style , a spin off from the Buck Rogers days. when every space helmet had a fin, even our own civil air patrol helmets had a fin

GE sewing machine, 3/4 size(?), very different set up. Looks like the hand wheel is gone.

1/2 size, it's the same size as a featherweight, and I think it might be the handwheel on the bottom.
