Almost identical to my mother's machine, the one I learned on. Which disappeared many years ago. This one was patiently waiting for me in an antique shop in Savannah, where I got her for $50. Made in Italy in 1956. Still works.
A great find! And with the manual, too. My mother had a Necchi which worked for over 50 years. When the motor finally died, she got a new machine and never really liked it.
@eudora yes, it had the manual, all the cams and attachments, even the original sales slip (from Kentucky - where I grew up!). I had been looking for years when I found this one.
That’s so exciting — she is a beauty! I’ve never heard of a Necchi. I learned to sew on my mother’s tiny “toy” Singer. She gave it to me a few years ago and it’s one of my treasures. I haven’t tried to sew with it — I should give it a try. I’m so glad you found her.
