I just took a picture of my cleaned up machine. when I got it, I thought most of the decals were gone, it was so black so I am thrilled with the way she looks now. In the picture the badge is showing up more gold but in person it is a shiny copper color

I was at an estate sale today, there was a 99 (I think) with a bentwood case. the bottom was falling apart the top was falling apart, the machine was not in the best of shape and there were attatcments which were all rusted, including the bobbins. the lady wanted $30 and would not take any less so I left it

Debbiewi: your machine is beautiful. :-D
And, I am pretty sure you deserve a prize for reading all 1088 pages... :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
