    Snazzy! I'm developing a fondness for the old crinkle Montgomery Wards machines. That's definitely an interesting needle plate, too.

    I believe that it’s a National VS (Vibrating Shuttle) Model A, and was made for MW by the National Sewing Machine Company. I have one that was badged as a “GraybaR”, and one that was badged as an “International”.
