Vintage Machine Find

Don't you love it when you walk through an entire antique store and the very last thing you look at is what you come home with?

That happened to me today. 

I'm a Featherweight devotee. I love the Singers! Back in the day, other companies were competing for the portable sewing machine market.

When I saw this case on the floor, I thought it was a projector. But the red alligator case intrigued me.
