    Thanks Jon. I read through there and didn't see anything to help me figure out the model or age of this machine. Here's some pics of it. Unfortunately it is missing it's wooden cover but otherwise its such a gorgeous machine.

    Nice, could you show a close up of the seal?

    I will see if I can get a clear shot to come out. It says "Clemons Muller Dresden" on it...and the "u" in Muller has the umlaut.

    Seems to be not related to the Canadian Wanzer in the link. Muller was a large German manufacturer and your pretty machine is based on Singer's Vibrating Shuttle.
