Here's the link to Sears Sewing Machines on Ismac's and written by Charles Law:
http://www.ismacs.net/sears/sears.html According to this Goodrich, Davis, Domestic, White, and Standard all made Minnesota's. The Min. L was made by Standard and is a "Class N" or Norwood. There's a handy dandy little book sold on ebay for $10 where I got this info from: "The Handbook of Antique Sewing Machines" by Charles Law. $10 well spent and I'm not the seller. Jon Nancy |

This one should clean up well but it's going to be a pain finding the front slide plate! |

Well, the plates from the 27 fit, but are not the right shape...it may take us years :eek:

Hi Monica,
The Empress is yours. I won't be taking it away from you. Besides I have two more that are identical, but with different brand names. Cathy

You can make a plate out of clear plastic until you find a plate. Which reminds me that I have a machine that needs that done. This is the machine that needs the clear plastic plates on my machine, or I should say Cathy's since I'm the new steward until Cathy wishes it back. ;)

Question for those folks that have painted their silvered decals. What type of paint did you used? I have this Eldredge which I now wish to restore the machine to its former beauty. The lady works thanks to Cathy giving me a tension spring, but the poor machine needs more restoration. She's vain and yearning for her makeup. I swear these machines talk.
