Default Duchness deluxe

I got the Duchness Deluxe that I found on CraigsList. At first she was qasking $150 and I guess she couldn't sell it at that price. I offered $45 and she accepted.

The case has seen better days but is repairable. Mainly just needs a new covering.

Finish and decals hardly looked like they have been touched

Shiny areas shine.

This is such a good find. It is a lovely machine and appears to be a singer clone. Congradulation.

Wow! It sure is pretty. It's a Japanese clone of a Singer model 15. There is a thread, somewhere in this section of the forum, to post pictures of your model 15 clones. I have one that I got at a thrift shop and it is a super smooth sewer.

Does it thread the same as a 15. The tension is on the side and the tension wire does not seem right. It is bent or something.
