Look At This Beauty
 
5 Attachment(s)
I just got what appears to be a nearly new crinkle finish Singer 128 sewing machine for $50. I found it on CL this morning. I just didn't need another sewing machine but I didn't have a crinkle finish so I bought it. It is so pretty and so cute. I think it is a 3/4 machine and it has a shuttle bobbin. The serial number dates the machine as a 1952. I didn't realize they still made shuttle bobbins that late but I guess so unless I have read the serial number wrong. Anyway, she is beautiful and I do believe she was used very little. She has a black face plate, a black back plate and the bobbin covers are kind of blackish also. The tension mechanism also is kind of unique to me. I am going to have my LSMG take a look at her. She runs pretty good but needs some tension adjustments. The case is also in near perfect condition and still has the key. I am just so, so happy.

She is the prettiest crinkle finish machine I have ever seen and seems to be in pristine condition. Lucky you.

She is a beauty! You have to post it on the crinkle machine site on here.
