Cute machine! So, Do we call the decals Art Deco; if so, then it makes it easier to find a machine similar in shape. Still don't know who manufactured the machine. I was able to find an Apartment Electric.
Hopeful someone else will come to the rescue.
So, top machine is the one you posted.
Bottom machine is the one I found.

Also the Davis company made some - it is shaped like a Minnesota,too. (Found this one on etsy - didnt know they had machines so cheap!0

Any thoughts on this one? I called about it - I can't tell a lot from the picture, but I've wanted a toy Singer. What should I be looking for- and what do they go for? Ive seen them go for a lot more on eBay,and that's not counting the shipping. I think it looks like a centennial one.

Where's a good place to get a replacement (motor) belt for a 1914 Singer Redeye.

I am going to look for a parts donor machne tomorrow for the missing screw and also an OSMG at a couple of places in town.

Everything seems to move fairly well when I turn the wheel, so I'm hopeful that I won't need to completely take it apart.
