This antique sewing machine was an heirloom from my family. It has been well cared for across several generations, but has not been put to use for several decades. It was stored indoors for that time. I have cleaned it to the best of my ability. It spins and all parts turn as they should, including the needle head, but I am not an expert and am unable to test it further. If this is something you're interested in, then feel free to bid. I have 100% seller feedback and will do my best to... work with you if any concerns arise, so bid with confidence!
