ALMOST a 10!

Kimball and Morton 1902 Lion Figural Sewing Machine

Maggie Snell's 'Almost a 10' Sewing Machine

International Sewing Machine Collectors' Society

The purpose of the International Sewing Machine Collectors' Society is to foster the collecting of, and research into, sewing machines.

This is the nearest thing to a Condition 10 machine, which is in Maggie's collection.

It is the Jones Fiddle Base. It was found, still in it's original, sealed, curved front-glass cabinet in the basement of an old shop in the 1970's.

Please see the Forsdyke Sewing Machine Condition Chart for details on rating your sewing machine's condition.
