Vintage Sewing Machine and Film Projector
Picked these two up at an estate sale this weekend. First time I have run across something like this. The sewing machine is a 1951 Singer Featherweight and the projector is a 1924 Kodascope Model C projector. Paid $10.00 each and both are in good working condition.

Great score on the Featherweight. I'm assuming it's a model 221. I've sold a couple of those for over $200 & know that in some areas they go higher. As long as they are running they easily sell, cosmetic condition & attachments increase the price. Keep an eye out for the 222 model as they are worth a lot more.

Re: Vintage Sewing Machine and Film Projector
Those Featherweights were incredibly HOT at one time. A friend used to specialize in those, and sold many for over $400.
My friend went to an auction once, and paid $265 plus 10% buyers tax plus 7% sales tax...and found out that it didn't run at all. I tried to tell her that it was a pig in a poke, but she bought it anyway.
It all ended well though. She parted the entire machine out, with each part selling in it's own 99 cent to start auction, and it brought almost $500.
