This vintage Singer Sewhandy Model 40 was manufactured in the early 1960s in Great Britain to replace the earlier Sewhandy model 20 toy. machines. This child-sized sewing machine was made to look like an adult sewing machine with a pyramid style base, a solid handwheel, enclosed drive mechanism and front mounted tension disc. This machine is in excellent condition and a piece of singer history and comes complete in its original box in a beautiful beige color.the machine is in pristine condition with no scratches or dents or markings. Crank works well with up and down motion. all appears to work as it should. The box has slight yellowing but is also in good condition with instruction books, and supplies that came with purchase. the sewing case also looks brand new, in fact still has the styrofoam packing inside. please see pictures for further review.
