OH MY! I didn't see that! Will be in touch if you PM me - once I see them.
If you are selling, I am in Ontario and would LOVE to buy the the one pictured on the right. It is a 222 open arm model Featherweight and you don't see them very often. You are incredibly lucky to have picked up this lot. I would also advise DD to turn the boyfriend into a husband as he sounds like very good son-in-law material!

I have already checked the serial numbers - the 222 is from 1956 if I remember correctly and the other two must be Centennial models judging by the badges - one is 1951 and one is 1952. One has the fancy scrolled front and the other has the lines.

Oh dear monkeys.... U did find a gold mine!!!! Yep that's an 222 on the right side of pic. SIGH, I can never find any FW's in my town except on eBay and they're getting tooooo high on prices although I got a great deal on 1956 recently of an 222 . So happy sewing on yours!
