Description:
Almost perfect device in its original case.
Rubber feet crumbled apart when I got the machine out, so I will have to make new replacements (3D print or wood).
Someone told me it is a quite rare machine, as it was made in Sommerda, before the factory merged with Borsig enterprise in 1936.
I just love the covers of the spools! They give an excellent Art deco atmosphere!
