Check out the Virtual area for Vintage Sewing Machine Shop. There are people there who collect and discuss all the attributes of the fine old ladies.
Virtual area? Where would that be?

The drawers have all the feet, spare bobbins, the original manual and a tiny, old Singer oil can (see on top of cabinet).

The machine lifts up and down on an elevator lift. It's awesome. This is Singer cabinet #DR04.

I had never seen this cabinet before, either. I have been prowling this flea market for old machines for quite some time, and missed this one because I kept thinking it was an old floor radio! Finally the lid on top woke me up and I investigated further. Glad I did!
