Need Help with a Vintage Canadian Sewing Machine
Hello Everyone,
Just wondering if anyone know's anything about Comrie Sewing Machine CC. I got this machine today for a steal of a price at 10$ and it seems to be in mint condition. Definitely needs a check up and a tuning but everything glides well when hand cranked. Not going to plug in until its looked at.
From what little I can figure out this machine was made in Edmonton Alberta, and its a Comrie Model S115908
The motor is a 110V Good Housekeeper Eureka Model E20.
It has an attached "over head" light as well which connects with the motor/footpedal cord.
The foot pedal is made in Toronto.
Photos are attached and any information you might know about it would be greatly appreciated as I have not been able to find anything except it looks similar to a 1950's dress maker special.
Thanks!
Here is the main pictures
below is the link to the flicker group with all the pictures.

Thank you so much Miriam! I just posted a couple pictures there to see if anyone can tell me any more information! It does seem like a 15 Clone for sure! And I love your Janie! She is just gorgeous!
Thanks for those links!
