Today I was lucky enough to acquire an old Singer hand crank. According to the serial number, the machine was manufactured in 1894. It is a 3/4 size machine and my best guess is that it is a VS 3. It has the “Scrolls & Roses” decals. The base is slotted for a treadle belt, so this machine could possible sit down into one of the drawing room cabinets. I will have to give that a try once I get her cleaned up.
