National A2 Rotary Sewing Machine

I have not had the time, and good health, to be able to clean, oil, and get this National A2 Rotary Sewing Machine sewing, it is one my sweet hubby recently brought home. I can't guarantee I will be able to get well enough, physically to fix this up, but I wanted to document the machine, and the features, especially after seeing the Montgomery Ward Ad about "The sewing machine we do not recommend", it described the cheapest model, but then went on to encourage buyers to buy this luxury National A2 Rotary Treadle Sewing Machine, instead, for many years of repair free sewing.

Improved Eldredge Rotary (another version of this model)

Hand crank, or treadle

No reverse

Bed mounted stitch length control

Top mount presser feet

Ad for Damascus Grand Rotary is at ISMACS.net link below

Early Montgomery Ward Ad machines we RECOMMEND National A2 Rotary not the cheap model advertised

Great website, this has a Damascus Grand, which is a badged National A2 rotary, sold by Montgomery Ward. See this professional quilter's custom made, 4 treadle table, similar to the one made by Wk Binger, at the Vintage Sewing Center and Museum, in Tulsa, Oklahoma!
