Is there a way of finding out how old a Jones Sewing machine is?

Excellent! Are looking to find out the age of your machine too? It has been impossible for me to find any other information apart from the general history of the company. I am hoping someone on QB will shed some light.

Yes, it is in extremely good condition. The photos were taken the day I brought the machine home and without any cleaning. So I am well pleased with this buy, but I must stop at the treadle which is on its way….My son has told me I need to stop. Sigh! What a short addictive affair!

...just smile and pat him on the shoulder, and say... yyyess, dear! And repeat the next time...

That's about all I could find out when I was trying to do some research on it. I wrote to the guy Muv gave a link to and never heard back from him.

On a more serious note, I'll keep trying to find out more about the machine if I can. If anything comes up, I'll let you know. Best wishes.

I just cannot find out how old it is!
I do know it was made in England manchester, and the serial number is 17836, model "medium CS"
Can anyone help?
