Singer FEATHERWEIGHT 221-K Sewing Machine HTF White 1964 England

by

We’re always excited when we find a Singer FEATHERWEIGHT Sewing Machine to offer, as we know how much they are loved, especially by quilters! This listing features one of the harder-to-find 221 K versions from England, 1964. White or green color depending on how you see it! Either way it’s a very collectible machine, in original case with accessories. Watch video to see it working.

Details:

  • Singer Portable Electric Sewing Machine 221-K in original case with accessories.
  • Number PV973107 with instruction booklet from 1964.
  • Starts easily, appears to run smoothly, but all I did is turn it on as I am not a quilter or seamstress.
  • Condition outside is overall very good to EXCELLENT, with minimum marks on glossy finish. Label residue on lower base and partially missing on Singer logo medallion. One of the 4 rubber “feet” on the base is missing and will need a replacement so it sits level.
  • Original Bakelite pedal is very good with some scuffs. Cords intact and clean.
  • Carrying case with handle is original and has some scratches and tears, but has done a good job protecting the machine. Still good condition.

LOTS of accessories including instructions booklet dated 1964.  Available in our eBay Connectibles Store.

Pullan vintage 1961 BOBBY 31″ Companion Doll BAD BOY Furniture PROMO Canada

by

Featured here is an unusual and hard to find vintage companion doll made by Earle Pullan Company circa 1960’s. He’s a large 31″, and was used for a promotion by the Bad Boy Furniture Company in Canada. He’s dressed as a prisoner because the TV spots starring the owner used the phrase that their prices were so low, it was a “STEAL!”

  • Great story behind this doll’s uniform, and great condition all around!
  • 31″ Vinyl head, hard plastic body – excellent overall with very light wear.
  • Outfit is all original to the store, and is in very good to excellent condition. Includes cap, shirt, pants, black vinyl shoes.

He’s a great size for you to add to your Playpal displays as well, and re-dress if you choose, but I love this unique, original costume.  Find this and many other vintage as well as new dolls in our eBay store connectibles.

Andy Rooney Estate – Two Madame Alexander 1954 MARY ELLEN Companion Dolls 31″ Twin

by

We were fortunate to have participated in an estate sale at Andy Rooney’s Connecticut home a few weeks ago.  (scroll below for a picture of the house and the crowd waiting.)  This was a very special event, and gave us an opportunity to obtain some wonderful collectibles to bring to you, his loyal fans.

Rooney had 2 identical twin girls, born in 1950. At the estate sale they were offering the 2 companion PLAYPAL size dolls that each girl was given in 1954- 1955. This listing features Twin “A” doll – a Madame Alexander MARY ELLEN hard plastic 31″ large companion size walker.  Unusual MA walker doll, only offered for one year by Alexander.  Especially interesting because of the Rooney twins connection. 

Doll Details:

  • Hard plastic, rooted nylon hair, sleep eyes, very lovely mouth.
  • Face paint is excellent, overall condition very good with some scuff marks on paint as shown in photos.  Overall VERY clean, original hair style can use a little refreshing but still excellent.
  • Stringing is loose in legs and she cannot stand on her own; we are including a doll stand.
  • Outfit is not original MA but is 1950’s untagged and charming; bloomers & socks & shoes I believe are factory original. Includes a vintage ladybug pin for extra sweet detail that was placed on the top of the collar!  All clothing shows some wear (some tears on nylon socks) but the ensemble displays very nicely and is of the fifties.

The two dolls have been together for over 60 years; we have them listed separately, but it would be so excellent if bidders have interest in keeping them as a set.

Please check our eBay Store Connectibles for these dolls and other Andy Rooney collectibles.

Two Vintage 1930’s Portable Typewriters w/ case – Underwood 77 Noiseless – Smith Corona Maroon Silent Unusual Excellent

by

Pictured here is a Underwood Vintage 77 Noiseless Typewriter with Original Case and Cover.    This typewriter has been stored for years in the case, which accounts for its excellent condition.

I doubt that you will find this 1930’s Underwood Noiseless in better condition, this is a real beauty.  The cover has some flaws at the corners, but is still intact with good graphics.  The case is in very good condition with two original case keys.

Pictured on the left is a Vintage Maroon LC Smith Corona Portable Typewriter with Original Case.    This typewriter has been stored for years in the case, which accounts for its excellent condition.

This is a great looking typewriter and really stands out in the maroon color. The case is also in good condition.

Many photographs and a more detailed description are included on eBay for a better evaluation of the condition.  Both of these beautiful typewriters can be found in our eBay Store Connectbiles.
