I found her on Craigslist and couldn't pass her up. The seller was a little flaky, but I bought it anyway. The decals on the bed are pretty worn, but the front looks pretty good. She sure is thirsty for some grease and oil!! She is electric, but I'm guessing she started life as a treadle. Her case looks much newer than she is. Can some of you experts help me out, pretty please? Her serial number is D449157.

I forgot to add a pic of the foot pedal, it is very unusual. I'll have to do that later.

What a pretty machine. It's birthdate is august 11, 1908. 15,000 of these model 66 were released on that date.

Nice Lotus! The brown ones are prettier than the orange ones, I think.

The motor is aftermarket, they changed out the handwheel and the presser foot bar was changed too, to accept the side clamp attachments. Not necessarily bad things.

The lotus is the only machine I actully sought out to find, I think a 1910 and converted. I see you have the same hand wheel mine

betting your pedal is the kind that looks like is sitting on it side, I 3 like that every one the ceramic is broken, yet they do work
