    Here is a really nice almost complete machine that would be a wonderful addition to a collection.

    Hi! I've been reading through this thread for days and am still not even halfway through. I'm so glad there's such a wonderful source of information out there on antique sewing machines. :)

    I picked up a beautiful little machine at the local flea market a while back, and I'd love to get it in working condition as well as find out as much about it as I can. I'll post some pictures below.

    The model number? on the machine seems to be AF(or E?)887558

    Everything seems to work smoothly when I turn the wheel, the needle goes up and down, etc. but while I could hear the motor running it would not sew. I think it's missing a belt? Also, there are some frayed wires next to the motor.
