Question
Where can I get some information on a Standard Sewing Machine Model No. P-4306? Are there websites that I can go to  research this unit?

Answer
Hello Jim,
I've had numerous queries about Standard Sewing Machines over the years. Unfortunately I'm not an expert in the household models of sewing machines. My expertise as far as sewing machines go is in the antique toy or collectible models.
If you look back through my Q & A, I have provided many links to websites that may be of interest to you.
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.
