    my 201 is my absolute favorite vintage machine--even ahead of
    the coveted Featherweight. too heavy for classes, though.
    Purrs along through almost anything. you will love it !!
    and what a buy !!

    Its a nice sewing machine. A neighbor of mine asked me to look at hers she has the same one. She couldn't get it to sew. I had to laugh at her she had it threaded wrong. lol. Here is another link.
