Look what I just bought! My first vintage machine. She came in a nice table, with an original owners manual and the original box of feet and accessories. Plus a bonus separate buttonholer from New Home. The decals are in great condition and she runs like a dream! Even the light works! The top of the table could use a little love-the varnish is cracking in some places.
Did I steal it for $35? Honestly, I don't even care! She's just so pretty!

Looks like a bargain to me. She's very pretty. I paid almost twice that amount for a Singer 15-125 in a cabinet & I thought that it was a bargain. Lucky you!

You did very well. It is great that it has a home where it will be so appreciated.

Good for you. Since joining the board in April and reading about vintage machines I have gotten 4 machine just by chance. Found a 15-91 at Salvation Army, got a free Featherweight, found a 1923 Red Eye, and 1953 Kenmore at a garage sale. Its been lots of fun. Enjoy your new machine.
