Greetings everyone! I'm completely new here, so if this should go
somewhere else, my apologies.

I have an old Bernina sewing machine that is in extremely good condition,
especially considering it survived countless years of my old high school's
Home Ec classes. I've been trying to determine the exact age/model of it,
as it didn't come with anything other than the machine and the foot pedal.
It's got a very old-looking round plug. Does anyone here have any
experience with older Berninas that might be able to help me date it?
I have one picture of it, it doesn't show much... but I'd be glad to take
more pictures if it would help.

Thanks in advance!
~Katie

That might indeed help. Those older Berninas were built like the Rock
of Ages!

Photo would help a lot. If you look on Ebay under vintage
bernina sewing machines (finished auctions and active) you
might find some helpful info.
