No, that is not a question...
My James Weir New England Style machine has arrived safe and sound from Paris, France to California! Now here starts the research part. 1. The "double curl" on the bottom indicates a James Weir Machine 2. The machine is Stamped on the Needleplate U.S. PATD JULY 30, 1861 So, it IS a Raymond machine, but made to sell in the UK through James Weir is the best guess currently.CHAS RAYMOND This is my oldest confirmed date machine.

What a beautiful machine.
|
It seems small compared to that white mug in the first photo. How much does this treasure weigh?
|
Beautiful. Great find.
|
What size is it, like 13" long or ? Made my heart skip when I first saw it. Great machine. Look at the presser foot, so neat. Does it sew yet?
