It has the oblong bobbin, many different feet attachments, and is a table model with a hand crank.
Number #29 (or 8)2 is imprinted in the wood top and HN is handwritten inside the cover.
Do you now anything about this machine?? Thank you for your help.
I certainly treasure "her" !!! Kay

Does anybody know if you can FM with one of those? She sure turns fast. Then with the motor going you can't even see the needle. Maybe she should be painted up to look like a low sleek race car?
HHHMMMM Purple with a red hat. I bet she needs a few flowers. She is butt ugly like she is don't you think?

This site has some other machines by Haid & Neu - part way down the page, the company is mentioned in the description of the machines as having made the machines for other labels. There is also a blurb about the company.

This is someone's photo of an H&N. Are you going to post a pic of yours? We would love to see it.
