Cathy: Your and Steve's focus are an example and inspiration for me. I have no self control on my collection. I buy what I like when the opportunity presents itself. Fortunately space and money constraints prevent me from buying everything I like. I've always liked antiques in general, especially furniture but space prevents me from buying every cool cabinet out there and there are a bunch. Carrying cases are more doable and there are some great designs of those as well. I don't have to rule those out. In fact I can even argue a case is necessary to protect the machine. It's not quite the same as self control though.

Lynnie, I put about 900 miles on the van to get those machines, rarely find them much closer to home. I would not have made the trip for the White or 319, but when the Singer 24 showed up - it was a good opportunity to get all three.
The really nice embossed Singer parlor cabinet came from St. Louis, so even farther away. That one a friend picked up and stored for me until I could get down there.
