Singer 27 decals
Is there a difference mechanically between a 1896 singer 27 with Phoenix decals vs. one with pheasant decals?
My son got me a treadle for Christmas. It works. The coffin top is missing. A drawer pull is missing. And there is no center drawer. All of those are available on eBay.
However, the paint and decals on the machine are in terrible condition. I am considering stripping, repainting, and new decals. It has the Phoenix decals, but the pheasant ones are so pretty. Would it be wrong to put the pheasant on instead?

I like the Pheasant decals better, but I have three of the Sphinx 27s.
