Yes and a very nice one too!

I believe it to be a 221 featherweight .. it will tell you under the gold seal on the front of the machine. I have one and it appears to be the same as mine!

Yes, that was a nice 222 Featherweught. I have learned to run not walk when these become available. If you have the extra cash, do not hesitate. You sleep you loose.

Thanks, I can hardly wait!!! Hope no one gets there ahead of me. Is that a good price?

The 221 model is less expensive. They don't have the bed that seperates in two peices. They sell for $200 and up depending on condition. I'd grab any featherweight at $100.

I did an inquiry a few months back at a Singer's dealers and for a top notched "Featherweight" the dealer is asking any where from $375 to $450, depending on their condition,
