I have the chance to buy this machine. This is the only picture and all I know is in the picture it does work and seller says it is portable. It looks small although I have nothing to go on.

I don't know what machine it is but check if needles and bobbins are still available. Check that the tension spring mechanism is good because parts may be difficult to find.

the base makes me think it is a variety of the Sewhandy (not the toy but the actual sewing machine)

I have never seen a gorilla one, but since they were pre WWII, it could have been "refurbished" during the time they were not selling new machines.

Front pics are just about a must to give real ID
