That is a singer Hemstitcher. That machine was produced after Singer bought Wheeler & Wilson, hence the W&W design for dual spool holders being put to use. (Singer made a lot of their industrial machines based on the W&W designs after the acquisition, they were better)

Great price by the way. Cleaned up and working these go for $750 -$1000

And then the very next ad in my search. I think this one may have been posted here before.

Just an interesting contrast.
Rodney

same ad... hehe

not necessarily out of the realm of reason price wise. Should be closer to $300-350 IMO but, it would clean up really nice.

Cari and Miriam,

It really looks like someone has been partaking of the "sauce" that's very much alcohol concentrate!

Steve, that 13 is a beauty! Someone's going to get a really nice machine, but it's too far away for me to even "wish" for it!
