Here’s a Freearm Featherweight with a definite plus.
It carries the fabled Big Red S badge fitted to the machines during the last 18 months of production.
I’ve rated this model a 9- on my condition chart for there is just the faintest thinning to one line at the very rear of the bed. 
Other than that the decals are superb, as is the paintwork with an absolute minimum of any pin marking and only a match head-size chip to the tough protective layer. It looks as if this has been professionally repaired at some time in the past and the base is as smooth as silk.
Like all my 222 Freearm machines this comes with a fully re-built 110-volt motor ready for the North American market and carries a two-year guarantee.
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.
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 15, 1960
Code: F499
