They pulled that number out all right, I don't think from the same end a hat goes on.

"How about $1069?"

"........OK."




That's the total of every single part and piece they priced separately. Typical of some estate dealers. The parts are worth more than the whole.

If I read it right, it doesn't have the bobbin case.

here we go, this has to be the deal of the year.. A true 1871 singer sewing machine, for the low asking price of $300. ( cause they looked it up on the net, no doubt )

I did even bother looking up the number.

The color of red is a kinda sorta give away. aaaaaaaaaa give or take 20 years or so, There all the same.

I've always wonder why this won't put a sticking in, listing serial numbers by year and model numbers

“Serial # 62552204”

I’d say that should be “G2552204”, which would make it a 1912 machine.....

I did. Also looked at the actual serial number. They have read the F as a 6. It's (obviously) a 66-1 and is from 1912.
EDIT: CD, I thought a G as well, but on inspection of the image it looks like an F.
