We are authorized to reproduce sewing machine manuals and related items. We reproduce the entire manual, with the addition of a watermark and due to popular request; smaller manuals are now being enlarged and printed, full sheet size. Our customers with mature eye sight love this change and say that they are much easier to read and that the illustrations are easier to see, too. Please note that this change will effect the illustration which says that this is the size needle that your machine uses. We can now get printed items into the downloadable PDF format and will enter them in the site when we get requests for them. We have about a thousand more manuals and a great many other things to get entered into the site, so if you do not see what you are looking for, please email us.
If you have a Florence sewing machine, with the round throat plate, please email me with the serial number and its details. I would love to have photos of it and to use be able to use them, so others can see the machines. Thank you for contributing to this project, Linda at Relics
If you have a Florence sewing machine, with the round throat plate, would you please email me with the serial number and its details. I would like to know if it is hand cranked, whether it is in a plain leg or a fancy leg base or if it is in a parlor cabinet with Walnut or a fancy wood. Also, please tell me if it is a sideways setting one, has sterling silver, etc. I would love to have photos of it and to be able to use them and your information.*
I recently came across old notebooks with Florence Sewing Machine Company information. They are full of correspondence, patent information and photos from others of their machines. I am planning on compiling the information and distributing it either on the Internet or perhaps even publishing it.
