Probably another from Sears. Since they started out in Minnesota, they liked to use some of the Native American names.

Here is another one - nice machine and all - but read about how rare the bobbins are - and this one comes with 8 so you'd better jump on it! http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hn...013293433.html

Not a bad deal for a real good machine - very unique.
