Poor little thing. Likely was not stored well. Those damp San Francisco salty fogs are not nice for sewing machine.

This one is a good little 3/4 size machine made by Jaguar - it is not mine but my sister did get them down to $50 which I think is a good deal. Somebody needs to go for it - I think it zzs and some other stitches too.

Singer has the centennial badge. Mostly, here in KC, they do tell you what they will take in barter. Interesting that this poster didn.t

Muast be the lack of the usual accompanying patina (aka dust) that makes it so valuable. :D
