Remember when I said that finding one 1945 Featherweight out of only 20,000 made in the year was like looking for a needle in a haystack? Well, JaneK came through for me and said she had one for sale. I of course said I'd buy her, and she arrived today!!! Ethel Jane, after her first 2 owners, will be going with me tomorrow on a quilt retreat for 2 days. She got her just in time!!! Thanks again, Jane. You really made my day!!!!

The 99 comes in the bentwood case, but I'm not sure what other ones do, or did you know that already? Maybe the 66?
I googled singers in bentwood cases and these popped up. Does this help?
