    Going by the stitch length adjustor on the right, I say a National Damascus VS is the machine.
    Cabinet looks like my Standard cabinet.

    Saw that one today too. I was wondering what that stuff was on the drawer as well as what the machine was. Love when they do that! No clue what it is. :)

    There is an auction coming up here on Saturday, and the preview pics show a Singer bentwood case, but they didn't open it. Grrr! I can't get to the preview, so I'm going to tell my mother to take a small flat screwdriver with her. :)

    Hi folks,

    I'm new here. I made a post last night about my newly acquired Foley & Williams "New Model", but it ended up on the main quilting board. I thought I was putting it here in the Vintage Sewing Machine Shop topic list. Could someone explain how to post a new topic here in the Vintage Sewing Machine Shop topic list? I read the FAQ on posting photos and tried to post a couple shots of this machine, but that didn't work either. I'm better with old machinery than computers. Any help would be most appreciated.
