    I found this little beauty on Craigslist for $50. She comes home with me tonight. All the attachments and the manual are with her. Looks like someone bent her spool pin, guess she needs a little TLC.

    I also come from 1954. I hope your little gem doesn't have the creaks, squeaks, and groans that I have!

    I have one from 1953 that was my grandmother. I am from 1955. It's a little different than yours and it's hard to get used to not using the knee-lift. Spoiled, I guess.
