      Does anybody know how old it may be?

      This machine is a model 15 from a batch of 50,000 commissioned on 22 May 1923. The cabinet looks later and the machine has probably been converted from treadle to electric.

      Thanks for the feedback! Much appreciated. I love this piece and the history behind it...my Nonna (as I called her) was a seamstress, and I have vivid memories of her sitting at the window sewing all night.
