The decals on the 1904 model are just beautiful! Be sure to follow Billy's directions for cleaning so that you don't accidentally "erase" them!

I want to shop with your husband!

My husband knows how to fix them he is an upholsterer and he learned from his dad that passed away. He has his dad's old Singer 111W-155 sewing machine for upholstery and has kept it running. My hubby has I think at last count 7 industrial machines 1 Singer, 3 Consew's plus one Consew 225 Long arm (it's 30 inch long !) a Juki LU562 and a Brother industrial I forgot the model.
So he not only is a keeper he sews and loves sewing machines! Man did I luck out or what!?

Wow! I was feeling a little guilty about telling everyone about my new sewing room. I am so happy for you. Where on earth does he find these things? I love vintage things.
