Singer Featherweight 221K 'Centennial' Sewing Machine
This beautifull 221K was made in 1951 and carries the sought after 'Centennial' badge which was fitted to a small number of machines to commemorate Singer's 100th anniversary. The machine is in good condition with just the normal light pin marks on the bed. It does not have any chips, deep scratches or corrosion on the enamelling, and the gold decals are in close to perfect condition without any obviously visable wear. The plated parts are all bright and shiny.
The machine works perfectly in all respects and has been recently serviced. The rubber mounting feet (bed cushions) are not melted or flattened as they have recently been replaced with new ones.
The machine is fitted with a very quiet Singer CAK6 motor for 240v European electrical supply. For use in USA / Canada etc. it will be necessary to purchase a small voltage convertor (minimum 100W) which are readily available quite cheaply. Alternatively for an additional �20 I can change the motor and controller to 110V versions.
The machine is complete with original attachments and a scanned copy of the User's Manual will be supplied as a pdf file. The case is in very good unmarked condition.
