White/Green Machines

I'm not going to get into whether the last-of-the-line 221s is white or green. Singer called the paintwork Pale Turquoise. Suffice to say, look at one on a green background and it's white but on a white background it looks green. The machine, with its intferior toothed belt drive, was a high-tech upgrade to the standard black model. And take no notice of the gloom merchants, I've never known a belt wear, let alone break. It's lighter and quieter than a black model –– and relatively few were made. Please note that Singer simply painted over a normal black motor for these models. The plastic housing did not provide a great paint key and a degree of paint chipping on the motor housing is, normally, to be expected.

We are proud to offer the following specially selected models

EV 999900 
Condition: 8+

Good-condition white machines complete with their original fragile badges are getting tough to find. 
This machine is in excellent condition with perfect chrome and great paintwork, except for one small scratch just over a quarter of an inch long on the very edge of the extension table which has been very carefully repaired at some time during the machine’s life.
It’s fitted with the correct anti-glare stitch plate – a great aid to perfect seaming.
And, isn't that a fun serial number....? Only nine away from the last of the EV line.
The original box, in great condition, matches the machine and is in the two-tone blue colour option.
As with all my machines the box has zero odor.

Machine comes with a full range of attachments/feet, the original full-size handbook and a packet of Schmetz needles.

Fully cleaned inside and out, serviced and
sew tested before leaving the workshop. Electrically tested for your safety. Pictures are of the actual machine. Any bright marks are from the flash - all flaws are always described in full.
Price includes comprehensive insured air shipping to your door
This machine. as with all other Featherweights I sell, comes with vital pieces of special documentation.
1) A certificate giving Singer's official statement of manufacturing date.
2) A guarantee that the machine contains no reproduction parts.

I source most of my machines in Europe which, although having the advantage or providing the very best examples , means that most are 240 volt and need either a small converter box or a proper conversion to 110 volt. To explore these options please go to Motors
