well, here are more of the 'toy' machines. several pictures of different machines in one listing. No prices. He does not have the russian one shown, but it is the same guy. Not even asking pricing for these, lol.

though, if someone is interested, I'll be glad to help you as I can. Gastonia is an hour and a half away, give or take.

Some of those have beautiful decals. Probably an outrageous price though. I have seen some toy DSMs at resale shops and antiques shops with dealer booths.

Do you think people only want to buy beautiful sewing machine dust? I'm only asking because I have some beautiful TV dust, lovely end table dust, exquisite picture frame dust and then some just run of the mill dust bunnies and I could really use the cash!!!

I don't know about any of that other dust but I have some dust elephants that I could sell, too, if the price is right!! The lovely end table dust does sound beautiful. Post it on CL's and see if there are any takers.

I especially loved the pictures of the machine in that ad. Yep, couldn't figure out old "Throttle" title but seller can call it whatever s/he wants to for that price.
