Question
I have an old electric Singer Sewing Machine that sew's backward, is it of any value?.


Answer
Hello James.  Sewing machines are not within my area of expertise.  However, Singer does have a web site with information about old models.  Also, there are a number of sewing machine collector sites on the Internet and  a few good books published on the subject that may help you out.  Good luck with your search for knowledge.  Barb
