Vintage Singer Sewing Machine Model 347

Description:
This is a vintage Singer Sewing Machine, Model 347, manufactured in the 1960s. It is a zig-zag sewing machine, designed for household use, featuring adjustable stitch width, needle position, and a variety of practical sewing functions. The machine is accompanied by its original accessories, including a foot pedal, instruction manual, and a carrying case. The machine and accessories appear to be in good condition with minor wear, consistent with its age and use.

History:
This sewing machine was purchased new by the owner's mother in approximately 1965. It has been preserved well over the decades, making it a desirable item for collectors or hobbyists interested in vintage sewing machines.

Condition:

  • Machine: Good working condition with light cosmetic scratches on the surface. All dials, levers, and components appear intact.
  • Case: Original hard plastic case with some signs of wear and scratches but still functional.
  • Accessories: Includes original foot pedal, instruction manual, and additional sewing attachments in their original Singer-branded pouch.

Market Value:
The Singer Model 347 is a collectible vintage sewing machine, known for its durability and timeless design. Based on its condition and the inclusion of original accessories, its current market value ranges from $100 to $200. The value may increase for buyers who prioritize complete sets and machines with historical family ownership. Selling platforms like eBay or specialized vintage sewing machine forums may attract collectors or sewing enthusiasts willing to pay the upper end of this range.

Notes:

  • To maximize its value, ensure the machine is clean and in full working order.
  • Including details about its maintenance history (e.g., oiling or repairs) can further reassure buyers.
  • Offer shipping options with secure packaging, as many collectors purchase these machines online.
