This lovely machine was headed to the dump so I offered to give it a good home. It needed it's lamp rewired and a good cleaning/oiling but now it sews an excellent stitch. The knee control is really growing on me.
I would love to hear from anyone else with CNE badges on their machines.
A Great find...I've been looking for one of these for quite awhile...and it appears in nice condition.....Thanks for sharing...J.C. Elliott
Singer exhibited and sold the current models of those made/ completed in St. John’s, Ca. in their display booth. Those machines had the special badges like yours, attached. As the CNE’s runs or only an 18 day span each year, those found are considered very scarce/ rare due to the limited window in which to buy one.
Examples of the aforementioned badges can be found in Collectors Weekly for the CNE years of 1936, 1937, 1938, & 1939
