Need help with Sewmor Sewing Machine Co research
I have started a collection of Sewmor sewing machines. I'd like to find out information about the company and it's history.
My latest machine, a black model 202, is stamped Sewmor on the underside of the bed and many of the parts. So I can conclude this machine was actually made by Sewmor, not just badged.
I've done an ISMACS search, Google, Wikipedia, and a couple other searches and I keep striking out.
I get listings for eBay and GW auctions ( the auction where I won the 202 came right up ) and that's about all.
Even those links that profess to have some history come up with nothing useful. Just links that run me around in circles.
I have 6 Sewmors now and am always looking for more. I'd love to have some history to go with the machines.
So could I ask those that are more skilled at searches to help with this endeavor?
TIA

I know you have probably read this but I will post it for newbies and others have not read it.

SunflowerZZ,
I have that page bookmarked. There is virtually no detailed info in it. Just a mention of the Consolidated Sewing Machine Corp, which is a non existent page.
I was looking for something more detailed.
Like who retailed the Sewmor brand, and like that.
