Question
Hi, I have a kenmore sewing machine with the original desk, oil, and buttonhole attachments. I also have the original manuals for the machine and buttonhole attachments. I know it was bought in August of 1949. I was wondering if you would know where I might look to sell it.
Hello Timika,
I am sorry I am unable to help you. My expertise is in TOY or MINIATURE sewing machines, antique needlework tools and thimbles.
I do not deal in household or domestic sewing machines. My only suggestion is try listing your machine on eBay.
Regards,
Irene

Expertise
I have been a collector of antique sewing tools and thimbles for over 30 years. I am also a dealer in this field and sell on eBay under the name -- serengeti2. I am NOT, and I repeat NOT an expert on antique or vintage domestic household sewing machines used for everyday home sewing. I can offer help when it comes to TOY or miniature collectible sewing machines ONLY.
