Not sure if this qualifies as vintage...
A lady had a machine that kept snapping off her thread and offered to give it away. I picked it up, cleaned, and oiled it, and it just purrs. Found the manual online....looks like I am missing the arm attachment and the case. But can't complain. Maybe 1976? Made in West Germany. Pfaff 295-1
I forgot to mention it was slated for the dump.

Good save!! The lady that runs our sewing circle swears by Pfaff. I showed her one in the local buy and sell, and asked if it was any good. Her response was "What's your resale price"? LOL! I haven't heard of any Pfaff branded duds to date. There'd have to be one or two, but no one I know is talking.
