My new old machine

This is my early Christmas present to myself. A 1930s Jones Family CS hand crank sewing machine. She is almost in perfect condition. Only a little damage to the wood casing that she is bedded in. Used her last night after I found out how to load/ unload bobbin and shuttle. I think she is beautiful and look forward to playing more with her.

Old New Baby, Introducing Mrs Jones

I got an early Christmas gift on Tuesday night. May I introduce Mrs Jones. A hand crank vintage sewing machine circa 1930 in almost perfect contition. Used her last night for the first time once I figured out how to load/unload the bobbing shuttle and set her up. Ran like a dream, the only real damage that I have noted is to be to the wood in which she is bedded, but even that is minimal.

The accessory box, made of carboard is totally intact and is stored in a recess just below the crank.
