1.0 out of 5 stars I was very disappointed., January 9, 2003

This book is really more of a booklet made up of old photocopied, type written pages. The pages are not even clear, with little black dots over the pages giving the appearance of something that has been photocopied quite often. It really looked like something someone threw together in their basement. There is some information there, but not what I was looking for. I think this item would be better suited to old "Singer" machine owners who do not have an owners manual since what information there is in this booklet seems more geared to the Singer owner.

I wanted a more comprehensive, fix it or do it yourself type of manual on mechanical sewing machines that addressed cleaning etc. Although there are alot of diagrams in the booklet, its not information I haven't already seen on the internet. The book is just not worth the money. I've never returned a book before because I really am a book lover but I just couldn't justify keeping this one. Hope this helps someone out there & Good luck!

Poorly typed and photocopied, with fuzzy illustrations. Even a home produced book ought to look better than this. There are only 34 pages of actual text. I think that I will learn something from it, but it is way overpriced.
