    I just purchased one of these about two months ago at Habitat for Humanity for $20.00. Vaselined the motor according to the original book that came with it and oiled it, had the original oil, original parts, original box, and it works like a charm.

    It is a White 77 Rotary in a cabinet, it needed a good cleaning, some new knobs, a new drive pulley, bobbin winder rubber and a new cord. But it sews like a champ with a perfectly balanced stitch.
    Now I have to make room for that big cabinet in my little sewing room!
    Sure brings back some fond memories!

    I have one to and it does take the 15 x1 needle. They are a great working machine, a real work horse!
