CowboyBob Report post Posted October 14, 2013 The picture is alittle fuzzy to say for sure but it looks like a Singer 71-30 buttonhole machine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cobra Steve Report post Posted October 15, 2013 Bob's right. It is a Singer 71-30. It is a buttonhole machine. I worked for Singer IPD (Industrial Products Division) from 1978-1984. I used to rebuild those machines. Those were the days! Steve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Constabulary Report post Posted October 15, 2013 but in the picture they for sure make bar tacks. This is a WWII picture where they put bar tack on helmet chin straps. So seems there was one with a bar tack setup. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
