Pfaff model 11 Sewing machine 1936

 

Here's a beautiful Pfaff model 11. It was kindly provided by the son of the original owner and includes a dated bill of sale. The date reads the 3rd of december 1937 while the serial number matches the Pfaff serial number database at a date in 1936.  This Singer 127/128 inspired machine is complete with a Dutch instruction manual and the brown accessories box. Compared to the 1929 Model 11 the decorations on this machine are much more austere.  The vibrating shuttle model 11 started life as the " K" and was a very popular machine in the 1920's and 1930' s. When the more modern, but heavier 30 and 130 series were introduced, the 11 was still available as a lighter option.
