About MeA box of needles, 'The No. 4/Smyth Book Sewing Machine' and a 'Picadilly/Number One' Cigarette case accompany this sewing machine. The sewing bobbins are at the top, below which are several metal rectangular rods and a rectangular wooden area. On the left of the machine are start and stop buttons. There are some bare wires by the motor. Originally it would have ran on a belt. It has an accompanying feed table - wooden plinth with circularmeta legs.
