Hi midwestern,
many thanks for displaying that. I like the pretty red print.
That is a great way to reassign one of the many you see discarded in hard rubbish. I recently found a green one complete with it's carry case. I wish I could remember the brand but I think it was sold through David Jones and looked to date from the 1960s sometime, going by the font of the logo. It was a respected brand used by professional seamstresses I was told after showing someone. I decided to dispose of it as the controller was missing. D'oh!!


Ahh, if only victa had kept producing the thumblatch catcher series, they would be in better shape today!
