    Not my cup of tea, but an incredible buy especially if it is a Two Spools with a canister.

    It would say Two Spool on the front. There's one for sale locally and the seller wants $275 for it.

    I sent an email to the seller asking for a pic of the bobbin and holder 3 days ago, but no reply.

    Received pics- regular bobbin case. The only 2 Spools I've seen are in pics, and all had that lovely scroll on the right post.

    Monroe, Here are two pictures to show the difference in the machines. Minus the lovely scroll art, the machine heads do look different. The one on top is a copy and paste from the CL posting, and the one on the bottom is my Two Spools. At first glance, one would think the CL machine is a Two Spools.

    Thank you for the comparisons. The Two Spools is Much more elegant.
