They are both full size machines. The smaller looking one is "special" according to the man i got them from. The light figure is smaller then most. I havent had a change to look at it yet. But they are the same colour.

this is the PFAFF. it's a 1209. the feed dogs go up and down but not back and forth. I haven't had time to look at it yet. I need to find new homes for the others first.

Wish I lived in Canada, I'd take all of the Brother machines.

What's the model # of that Kenmore? It looks like a Dressmaker, I've never seen a Kenmore look like that before.

The question you have to ask yourself in regards to badged machines like that Imperial, is What kind of rare are you looking for (or value). This machine may be rare because of the nameplate, but not the machine itself. If a person wanted to buy several machines at once you could get any name put on them that you wanted. So If company A made 100,000 identical machines (except for the badging) and yours is one of x number badged that way it "could" be considered rare, but to most collectors, not so much.

Cool looking machine BTW!

I love the teal and pink. I seem to attract old machine too. I have had good luck though in fixing them up and giving them to young ladies who can't afford a machine. Lucky you.
