    Very cute! I have never seen one. I wouldn't be surprised if it is worth some $.

I did see the featherweight and it was a beauty! $375 too! Way out of my budget. Was missing some accessories and the manual. But I saw a little tan case and I had no idea what would be inside. I opened it and found this cutie! I know nothing about it, but for $5 I figured I had to have it. It is a Pfaff Princess and it is a crank machine. I figure it is a child's toy. It is a lot dirty and a little rusty. I will get around to cleaning it up later this afternoon.
    Oh nice score!!!!
    I think you did very well. It does look like a toy machine but heck they are going for premium prices as well. It will look awesome on a shelf in your sewing room. Perhaps with a Raggedy Ann doll perched next to it. :D
    :XD:
