<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Shangas, post: 12819589, member: 360&quot;]Looks like a pretty standard sewing machine from the mid-to-late 20s. The model is a WHITE &quot;Rotary&quot; unless I&#039;m mistaken. The black-crackle finish came out in the 20s, but it didn&#039;t last very long. I think it was harder to clean or less durable or something, and people weren&#039;t interested in it. </p><p><br /></p><p>Machines of this era rarely had reverse-mechanisms on them. I have a machine from about 1900, 1910, which has forward-reverse gearing, but that&#039;s a German vibrating-shuttle machine. On American machines like this, forward-reverse stitching didn&#039;t happen until the late 1950s, I believe.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
