How fun is that!! Did it come with the crinkle as it's original paint?

I didn't know there was such a critter!

Yes, the serial number indicates it's birth date in the original production run of December 5, 1939.

That machine is so cool! Very tough looking for being so tiny. I thought I was lucky finding a blackside. Happy sewing.

Really nice!!!

Very pretty. I just LOVE my featherweight!!!

It's a beauty! Not sure what the crinkle means!! Are they used for taking to classes or do u use them at home too?

I don't use this one. However, it does work. Crinkle is a term for the matte black rough textured paint. These do not have the standard decals as do the shiny black finish machines do. These do however have 'ridges' that run the length of the bed on front/rear. They're are rather hard to run across.

She is gorgeous!!
