Yes, it’s a condition 9 Big Red S – don’t often see them around.
This partuclar machine has totally complete and unworn decals, superb chrome and just the lightest of marks on the bed to show that it’s had any use at all.
It comes with the correct-for-year Singer graduated stitch plate with the special anti-glare finish.
The Red S badge was introduced at the very end of the Featherweight production run and although, of course, it adds nothing to the superb functionality of the machine it’s just one of those charming little extras that add to the model’s appeal.
And, yes, like all my 222s it will have a totally-rebuilt 110 volt motor ready to plug in and sew, with 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 30, 1961
