This machine so nearly made it to the coveted 9  condition bracket. But on very close inspection there is just the slightest thinning on one line of the front decal.
So, despite the absolute minimum of light marks on the bed, we’ve added the dreaded minus sign and adjusted the price accordingly.
Like all 222s, this machine comes with Singer’s graduated stitch plate and the advantage of the removable bed and lowering feed dogs for freehand embroidery. 
Chrome is perfect. And, remember, as with all my Freearm machines, this comes with a totally re-built 110-volt specification motor with its own two-year guarantee.
Good condition original box with no odor.
Machine comes with a range of attachments/feet, a bound photocopy of 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 three vital pieces of special documentation. 1) A certificate giving Singer's official statement of manufacturing date. 2) A guarantee that the machine contains no modern reproduction parts. 3) A dated certificate of electrical safety
According to Singer's production records this machine was born on March 31, 1954
Code: F491
