1936 Singer Featherweight

Description: An Exceptionally 1936 Singer Featherweight. Please meet Elizabeth. She was born November 5, 1936 (Serial number AE304345). Elizabeth is part of the Pre WWII featherweights. It is getting harder and harder to find featherweights like Elizabeth. Elizabeth is 88 years old. She still works well and overall is in amazing condition. Her bed is in excellent shape for her age. The finish on Elizabeth is in extremely good condition with a bright shine and only a few scratches. The decorative decal border around the base of Elizabeth is in good condition. It only shows some wear appropriate to its age. Something special about this Elizabeth is that she still has the Egyptian scroll face plate, chrome tension, chrome stitch lever and split base at the power terminal. Elizabeth has been cleaned, serviced, polished and tested. Her belt (super belt), light (LED), felt pad, protective silicon button, bed cushions and red spool pin cover are all new. Elizabeth has had the motor pulley removed to check for thread, the rotary hook assembly and balanced wheel have also been checked for any thread. Elizabeth's foot pedal has been inspected, cleaned and new cushion put on. The electrical cord on Elizabeth's foot pedal is in great condition. She still has the original Bakelite plug. Bakelite plugs are getting harder to get with featherweights. Her bobbin case has been set to 23g. A new Schmetz microtex needle has been put in Elizabeth. I have included a sample stitch that was done on Elizabeth before I listed her. Elizabeth's house (the case) is in wonderful condition for 88 years old. The case latches and hinges have been polished to a nice shine. Both latches work. The case comes with a removable tray and oil can holder. As with any case that is 88 years old there are some dings but the case is solid. What's nice is that the case comes with an original singer key. Elizabeth comes with: a new reproduction manual, 3 bobbins (inside the attachment box), an original bobbin case, an original pressor foot, a narrow hemmer, a ruffler, a bias binder multi slotted with guide pins, an adjustable hemmer, a narrow zipper foot, an edger stitcher, a gathering foot (aka shirring foot), 20 micro cleaning brushes, a measuring gauge, a magnetic seam guide, thread snips, a vintage singer key and a life is short buy fabric attachment bag. All the attachments are in a vintage Singer attachment box (box has some wear and tear - see photos).

The shipping box is approximately 18 x 14 x 12 inches and weighs 22 pounds. When Elizabeth is shipped, she will be insured. I wrap the featherweight, any attachment box and foot pedal in packing cellophane then put bubble wrap inside the case. I then wrapped the case in cellophane. This way there is less chance of the finish being marred during shipping. I put inflatable air tubes around the case to cushion the featherweight while it is shipped. I take the spool pin cover off and put a piece of cardboard to cover the opening. I wrap the spool pin cover in cellophane and bubble wrap. I then put the spool pin cover in the case. This way there is less chance of it breaking during shipping. I write this so you have an idea of how I ship so you do not worry about the featherweight while it is coming to you.
