I don't really have room for another SM that is in a cabinet but while I was poking around in the thrift shop, today, I couldn't pass this one up!! It is an 1892 Singer VS3/28-18 with the most beautiful decals that I've ever seen. I don't really know much about this model but it is in wonderful shape, cosmetically, and I will have to see if any of it's main parts are missing.

After searching around to see what the decals were called I found that they are called "Orange Blossom, Dogwood" and they were on the machines from 1892 through 1894.

That's a gorgeous machine! It looks new!!!!! Great find.

OMG!!!!!! I can not believe it is in this condition! :shock: :shock: :shock:

Go ahead and hurt my feelings and tell me what you paid for it..........

wow, those decals are pristine! Gorgeous... just gorgeous :)

I am not a huge fan of FW in general,BUT with that said - this is the most beautiful sewing machine I have ever seen!! I can see why you had to have it! Congrats on a great find!

The only thing that makes me sick to my stomach is the electric motor was added and they changed the bobbin winder and the belt guard.

Well, it also came in this pretty little cabinet :D . I paid $150.00 and I don't know if it was too much but I didn't care---it was coming home with me :mrgreen:

Aw, that is a BEAUTIFUL machine! So pretty!

This is a Model 27

That was one of my questions. I would like to change it back over to a treadle. I have a couple of treadle cabinets that I could put it in!!
