    Our newly purchased from a disposal store in Adelaide sewing machine should work well.
    Only the belt is broken. The wood work needs some repairs and re varnishing. I've got some citrus gel varnish stripper for the wood and 3 in 1 oil for cleaning the machine and iron work.
    Any suggestions for oiling or re varnishing the wood work? I was thinking of Cabothane spray.

    The serial number is 1746358. Not sure what year it is?

      This machines is a VS, not a Rotary. If you call the Husqvarna/Viking/White company at 1 800 446-2333 FREE, they may be able to date your machine for you.

      I inherited my grandmother's 1909 White sewing machine 15 years ago. It is a six drawer, mint condition and was purchased by my grandfather October 1909. It was manufactured in Cleveland Ohio. It is a #27 automatic lift White. I had the bill of sale and recall it was $175 in 1909. Wonder what the value would be today? To me, it is priceless. Any ideas on values would be appreciated.

      It's not possible to value a sewing machine online with no pictures - even then it's difficult. Sewing machines sell for different prices in different parts of the world and in different parts of the same country. Check your local ebay and craigslist for other similar machines.
