| sorry the photo is sooo fuzzy. the cases are all wood, and in wonderful condition! At least considering they are 90 years old. |

| I adore this motor tag .. these motors are original Singer ones so they date from the 1920's as well. I'm excited, the motors we have had prior were added on a treadle machine after the fact. |

| closer shot of the box... I'm hoping to incorporate this into our display without altering it. I want to be able to lay chain necklaces across it.. I"m thinking something using wire. |
By serial numbers these date to 1920 and 1924. Got them at a good price, and the boxes are in lovely shape for their ages... I've been wanting wooden boxes for a while, so I'm glad I waited til we found these!! I know.. I have a thing for boxes. But I'm actually planning on refitting at least one of these into a display for the booth. That's a tentative plan.. I want to figure out a way that makes it useful without actually altering the box. I have to consider this very carefully as this will be a huge footprint of space in my booth.. but if done correctly I think will add a lovely touch to it.
Jerry's getting pretty excited about ripping stuff up, he's already started on these singer. I really believe next year could be our best yet.. we are both so excited at the direction my art is taking!
