Kenmore-WHITE
This wonderful sewing machine is the world famous WHITE 77 in a Kenmore house. This simple straight stitch sewing machine is one of the very best ever made. It is a rotary action with quiet operation and very smooth. It makes a perfect stitch. This is in a very nice looking cabinet that adds a lot to sewing with it however it will sew just fine out of the cabinet.

This unit is extremely well equipped with every thing needed, just about, as the pictures will show. It is all ready to sew having been serviced and refreshed completely. This is an exceptional sewing machine.

The price for this fine sewing machine with all accessories is just $135.00 and that is a good buy. The cabinet is free if you want it.

Has that 'modern sleek design when rocket shapes became popular'. Sears was responsible for the appearance design and they were very keen on being modern. Has all the functions of a very good sewing machine.

The hand wheel end view shows more of the design. Note the cable laying in a grove along the rear edge. This cable lowers and raises the head into and out of the cabinet. All that is needed in to raise the lid or lower it and the job is done.

Note the machine is powered by the friction wheel design White used for several decades. The one problem caused by this design is the rubber friction wheel developes a flat area when left in one position for extended periods of time. There is an easy solution....

Wedge a prop so as to hold the motor out. The spring in the motor bracket will hold the prop. Easy to set and to remove and works fine. For anyone that sews regular this is not helpful or useful.

The Sears & Roebuck badge identifies it as beening made by WHITE with the code 117 in the badge. White = 117 on all Kenmores made by White and that was a lot of them. This was called a model 95 by Kenmore but was the White 77.

More accessories on the back side to look at. It appears there are 8 ot 9 buttonhole sizes. There is a nice ruffler also (value on this one piece is $35.00). Buy it all for just $135.00. Good deal?
