QUESTION: Dear Irene,

I have a National Sewing Machine Company Model RBR sewing machine from between 1950 to 1954.  It is in a cabinet.  However, the instruction book says Model R40.  Can you tell me the value of this machine?  It was my Mother's.  Thank you so much for your help.

Hello Bill,
The links listed below all relate to domestic or home sewing machines.  These links have contact information and hopefully your questions about your home sewing machine will be answered by someone who is more familiar with these machines than I am.
Good luck.
