Got most of my attachments sorted out

Most of this I accumulated with Machines, or in "lots" with other items I really wanted, that were worth the price of the "Lot" to get one or two special feet.
This is the rarest foot I have - the Two Thread Embroidery Attachment, with box, instructions and thread holder.

I think the "penguin" walking foot is the only one that is rarer.
This is my second most rare foot - the single thread embroidery attachment. I have now have one that fits the White (top clamp) machines. I don't have a box or instructions with it. While I don't worry too much about that, it does affect the collectable value of an item.

Gee, The one job I had for this winter season was to sort my parts/attachments then sell off what doesn't go on my vintage machines. I am still trying to find out about the green plastic egg shaped container --compared to the pink plastic egg that holds the buttonholer. Any help appreciated. I also thought of toy soldiers on your table.
I have many feet and stuff too to sell very reasonable. I have no "Penguin" walking foot but I am still looking and
no glass feet.

The green vs pink is slant vs straight shank units. I forget which is which though. However that does not stop someone from switching them around. It will say right on the top of the buttonholer.

Was thinking " why green and pink?" then realized the early box was green for Straight and Red for slant (301) so I bet Singer continuned with the Green being the straight unit. The directions are the same - they reference both units.
Come to think of it - Singer has always used Green, and then Green/Red on there boxes. Not sure why they went with pink . . .

Thanks - starting to wonder if that may have not been the wisest thing to do. I expected people to know what they wanted - not expect me to figure out what they should have. Probably would have done better to use them to play battleship LOL!!
On a good note - I've got four good sized boxes of extras going in the mail tomorrow- so the pile is going down some! Which is good because I haven't stopped finding new stuff to buy.
