Fantastic white 221

This machine is great. Most of the white ones have chips out of the paint and the cases are bad. Don't give it away they are worth a lot.

I have a whilte FW from 1964. I got the info on it from the Featherweight Shop. The info on ISMACS showed some other machine from mine also. I got mine for $50 at an estate sale. It wasn't working and I beat another person to it by maybe 15 minutes! All it needed was cleaning and oiling. I've seen them go on eBay for $700 - $800. Be sure to check the sold prices. A lot of people on eBay list things at ridiculous prices hoping to snag someone.

It's beautiful! I'm looking for one- I imagine it's sold already?

All the mechanics of this machine are beautiful, I think how it all runs in unison perfectly is something to be in awe of ... I bought this for $25 at the thrift store. Lol I’m sure eventually I’ll find somebody who can really appreciate it more than me by using it. And it’s funny because the price I’m selling it for is like so much lower than everyone else and there is really going to be one special person who decides to buy it and when they see the condition they will freak out.

I need to live where you are to find something that affordable at the thrift store. Here in central MS, the thrift stores are horribly expensive.
