Yes there are a few of these around Folker. this is a newer one but still old. they do not use feet i think, just rollers? maybe there was an option for a normal type foot? they are for heavy materials like rubber and thick leather:

I`m sometimes thinking the same when it comes to vintage Singer sewing machines
