What makes this Featherweight unique?
This Featherweight is distinguished by the 'Manufactured in Great Britain' decal on the back of the machine arm. A similar decal (composed in French) was frequently placed on 221 Featherweights sold in France. It is not clear why Singer added this origin country decal when a machine would be sold in the UK, but they are certainly rare and difficult to come by.
