I have to share this. When I went out to take the pictures, I dumped out the contents of all the drawers into a box. I just found, in the folds of some fabric scraps, the manual for the machine (CB-1 Sewing Machines), a box of attachments, and an Universal Electric Sewing Machine Series 1953 Twenty Year Guarantee Bond for the sewing machine - dated 2/21/53! there is also a receipt dated 4/22/72 for a service call/labor/and a spring wire totaling $14.50. Also? The sewing center where the machine was purchased is still in business.

Stuff like that makes me giddy!
That is absolutely awesome. Usually we can only estimate the manufacture date of a Japanese clone as sometime in the 50s or 60s. Lucky you to have the documentation. Your machine sure doesn't look her age and has been well cared for.

Oh, goody! I hope that will translate to less repairs or problems once I get around to fixing everything up and trying to use it.
