Need help ID'ing a machine
One of the five (!!) machines we picked up today is a transverse shuttle with mother-of-pearl inlay and (to my eye) ivy decals. I'd like to figure out the maker at least but I haven't seen any thing to give me a clue but the badge - a reversed R back-to-back with a regular R.

Joseph Johnson & Comp[an]y, Ltd

Market Street
Leicester
The case for it is shown in the background (with the key still attached via a string.)
The Seidel Naumann (?) has no verbiage that I can find. The case for it is also shown in the background.
The Singer 13 is in really nice condition. It includes a very rag-tag manual:
Directions for using the Singer Manufacturing Company's 'Medium' sewing machine.
The manual looks like it was done for Great Britain. The parts box that came with it furthers the idea that this machine was for Great Britain:
The Singer Manufacturing Company
Chief Office in Europe 39 Foster Lane, Cheapside, London
This box contains
One Tuck Marker, One Quarter , One set Hemmers and Folder
Though it looks like it actually has more than that in it.
