My mom had one in our basement back in the '50's...Flip-top; opened like a book, then the top was the table...Sewing machine flipped up 180º and locked in place...Give the hand wheel a twirl and press down on the foot treadle...Solid cast iron, baked black enamel, gold lettering...Drawers for bobbins, needles, spools...
Cast iron frame & treadle assembly...Lots of interesting levers, nickel plated...
NO electric motors...
I never saw anyone ever use it. Both my [older] sisters had moved out by the time I was seven or so...
Great fun on a rainy day!
It disappeared while I was overseas...
