Description

This White Singer Featherweight 221K is so dainty and pretty! Completely serviced, cleaned, polished, electrically inspected, timed, tuned and sampled - this White Featherweight 221 will be ready to sew right out of the case.  This machine is fitted with its original 110v motor that has been rewound to run at optimum speed and torque.  A voltage converter is not needed in the USA or Canada.  (Technically and originally named by Singer, the color of this machine is called "Pale Turquoise", however it is more commonly known as the Celery or White colored Featherweight.  But, as you can tell from the lighting, the color changes depending upon its surroundings.)

EY853*** indicates an original production commission date during the mid-late 1960s. Some of the dating for White Featherweights has become obscure due to incomplete records.  You can view some of the records here
Be sure to click on any image above to view the machine in closer detail; it is in fabulous condition and is given a Grade 8+!  

The case seen here is very sought after among the wide variety of cases that originally accompanied the White Featherweights. The vinyl cases have been seen in red, turquoise, and this blue color, and they were only issued with White Featherweights sold in Canada.
