Cabbagepatchkid I just adore your Singer 128. I have never seen a machine with such beautiful decals, so pretty. It is like a work of art and the fact that it sews is just a bonus! Congratulations!

I have a number of vintage machines, but I don't have photos of all of them yet. I'll post them with their info as I photograph them.
This one is a Singer model 27, with 25,000 allotted on January 1, 2010, in Elizabeth, NJ. The serial number is G 22926. It has the pheasant decals. It has not been cleaned yet and the cabinet is currently dismantled because the top was in very bad shape and had to be replaced. I love the gorgeous faceplate.

This is a model 99 handcrank. The serial number is EL 908022, and it was manufactured on November 20, 1956, in Clydebank, Scotland. There were 50,000 machines allotted on that day. I have to get a new bobbin cover for it yet. My kids love to sew on this machine. The faceplate is very geometric and simple, but is still beautiful.

I have several vintage machines...but these are the only two that I have pictures of...
The first is a Pfaff 130 in a maple cabinet...purchased for $5.00 at an estate auction. In perfect running condition! :)
The second is a Featherweight with the table that I purchased at an auction for $110 for both table and machine! She needed a servicing and an oil drip pan when I got her. She's now up and running beautifully! :)

Two Singer 66-1 with Brown Lotus decals and back clamps. The spoke wheels are slightly different; one is larger than the other.
One machine has mount for adding hand-crank or motor.

I'm making note of different treadles and cabinets too.
First photo is straight-leg treadle. Second photo is standard treadle. Third photo is standard treadle with cabinet that once had wooden legs and was used for e-machine. I just mounted this cabinet on treadle since the treadle's cabinet was beyond hope.
