What a deal
I got an unbelievable bargain yesterday. I stopped in the local thrift store and in the back alongside the toasters and coffee makers was a familiar box. I opened it to find a singer featherweight. marked $10.10. I bought it , cleaned, oiled, and adjusted it and it runs beautifully. Only problem was the case is musty and latches broken. what a steal. oh yes, yesterday was senior citizens day 10% off so I only paid 9.09.

Congratulations! What a deal. Try setting the case outside in the sun if that's an option. You can also try putting it in a plastic bag with some charcoal to absorb any odors as well. Look through the vintage section of this forum and you'll find quite a few threads on getting the musty smell out of the case.
