I have just acquired this little beauty, I bought it for NZD$80 locally. Generally in worn condition I just could not say no. Unsure of age but picking it is around 1900-1910 has a serial number under front bobbin cover on main head 3134063, any info welcomed thanks in advance
Beautiful cabinet.
Thank you both for your commens. It is really nice but my house is small and I love my Singer 27 more. I'm probably going to have to sell it but not just yet!
I lso have this machine and the only other one I have was in shanty Town in Greymouth about 35years ago
