Singer Trapezoid Cabinet #74, original bench and Singer 301a short bed tan sewing machine

Singer Trapezoid Cabinet #74, original bench and 301 short bed machine I purchased this machine from a lady in Chicago.  She was having an estate sale for her mother who passed away in 2018.  On the last day of the sale, first thing in the morning, I drove to the home, on a Sunday.  I had emailed her about the machine when I found it on craigslist.  Because the sale was actually over that day, and the machine hadn't sold, she let me have the machine, bench and cabinet for $75.  She could tell how excited I was to have it.  She told me that she had sewed her prom dress on the machine. Here are my photos:  This is the original tan 301 above, and the original #74 trapezoid cabinet, below:

Singer 20 Centennial Edition

Singer Centennial from France My french connection has been good to me, being the source of my Jones swan neck and this centennial edition Singer 20. Here are some photos of my gem, obtained in 2018. The Singer 20 came with the original clamp, the one in the front is for a different project. The clamp on the left side, above photo, is the original clamp. The label showing the "Importe D Italie"  Very cool. Another front photo of the Singer. In excellent condition.
