SOLD --- Singer 421G Slant-Shank
Free Arm Sewing Machine
The 421G is unique in that it has a detachable bed to become a 'free-arm' sewing machine. The 421G and 431G were the only 400 series Singers with this feature. The 421G makes a more economical free arm sewing machine than the Singer 222 featherweight.
The German made Singers in North America are rare, since they were not marketed here and were apparently only brought to North America by individuals. Even so, this machine is originally outfitted with a 110V motor for the NA electrical system.
This machine was made in Singer's Karlsruhe plant in Germany. The original production numbers of these machines are low since it was the top-of-the-line model offered. In its day (the early 1960s), it was an extremely expensive purchase. Estimates are that in today’s currency adjusted for inflation, it would have cost the equivalent of around $4000-$4500USD... so at $400USD, this machine is a real deal!!!
This machine is fully cleaned, lubricated, serviced, and tested.
