    Here’s a Singer sewing machine collection you don’t see everyday!

    At the rear left to right are;
    Model 66 with the Rust & Gold badge from the 1934 fair - Singer 101-12 with Blue & Gold bage from the 1933 Fair
    In the center are left to right;
    Model 99 again with the Rust & Gold badge 1934 - Model 15-91 Blue & Gold 1933 Chicago World’s Fair

      You should be proud of this group. It is all that to use the current vernacular.

      What a Beautiful collection. I would love to build a collection and I know it would be close to impossible to find them all. Can you tell me why that Featherweight is the "Holy Grail”? Also where can I find a list of what are the most sought after collector singer machines? The Red S, Crinkle finish etc….

      Imaya ,thanks for commenting! Our sewing collection continues to grow now with well over 100 special machines. A list of Specialty badged sewing machines can be found on Tre’ Perry’s Facebook page under the tab labeled “FILES”. I also included a brief description of World Fairs that sewing companies displayed at…thanks again, J.C.
