Singer Featherweight 221 Sewing Machine, AG884*** – 1946 – RARE Motor The Singer Featherweight Shop

This Singer Featherweight 221 is in great condition, and it was commissioned on November 22nd, 1946!  Cleaned and serviced inside and out – this 221 will be ready to sew right out of the case.  This machine is fitted with an original 110-volt motor that has been rewound to work at optimum speed and torque.  A converter is not needed in the U.S. or Canada.  This machine is given a Grade 7+.  Be sure to click on any image above to view the beauty of this Singer Featherweight machine.  It is in good condition with some light wear.

The machine features the rare gold ‘S’ Bakelite motor.  These rare motors were made in the U.S.A., Canada, and Great Britain, and they usually coincide with a machine sold in a different location than the country where the machine was produced.  Because this is a 221 Featherweight manufactured in the U.S.A. with this Bakelite 110v motor, it is likely that this one was originally sold outside, but in a country like Canada also using 110v power.
