Pfaff 41
This is a Wheeler and Wilson #9 dressed up like a Pfaff. It is a better made sewing machine possibly than the real thing. The Germans knocked-off several American sewing machines. This one dates to 1907 by its serial number so by then Singer owned the W&W 9.

It is badged PFAFF in several places but there is little about it being a Pfaff. This one may have been bought in Germany and made just for that market.

I've never seen a W&W 9 as good looking as this one. Note the American shield seal on the slide plate. This is on all W&W machines.

The presser foot is W&W in every detail. Don't know about the needle but it is most likely a 15X1.
