Another Chain Stitch machine
 
This is an B. Eldredge Automatic - made by National.

It's a copy of the Wilcox and Gibbs machine, so now I have a pair of them.

I have two more machines in transit - so I'll share those when they arrive (still no White 670 though).

I also bought some attachments I'm very excited to be getting - not for the attachments but something else that looked like it was tucked in with them. Won't know for sure until it arrives, and I only paid $15 including shipping, so figured it was worth the chance. Now the hard part - waiting for it to show up!

Lovely machine...
Scary that when I started to look at the pictures I had to stop and look again because I was sure that it was a Wilcox and Gibb that you were showing...then I read down...
Really love this one....

Beautiful machine. The decals look near perfect. My first thought was W & G too.

Thanks for the tease on the mystery part. :)

That's a lovely machine! I've salivated over a few on Ebay but mostly they have rusty bed-plates. Yours looks really nice. Does it sew OK?

Look at those delicate decals! It is a charmer!

I have the New Home version. Still twiddling between motors or handranks, actually picked up a W&G with motor and base.
