A brief introduction from the authors of this site, Geoff and
Norma Dickens.....
The passion of collecting
antique sewing machines, and researching their history, has been
with us now for many years.
Being UK based, our efforts have been concentrated towards British
manufactured and marketed machines.
A desire to seek out the oldest and most unusual models has led
to a broad knowledge of sewing machines produced during the 1800s.
Unfortunately this limits our insight into newer machines and
manufacturers.
Please note, we do not supply valuations for machines. Such
emails will not be acknowledged.
Also, we cannot reply
to all requests for sewing machine information, particularly if
we have no details available on a specific maker or marque.
