I'm sure there are laws against riding machings and its poor old legs don't look up to it.

Nice machine, but what's to dial? I see one lever for stitch length.

The stitch selector is a dial - it clicks as you turn it. Must have been a novelty.

The dating is based on the amount of rust and dirt right?

The spider webs added at least $10 to the price of the machine.

It's actually unusual to see a machine sealed in the box with this much rust. 128s are one machine I more often than not see in almost mint condition, if still in the case. Guess it must have been stored really badly.
