I'm not aware of a 'new' machine with the model 52F. What is the manufacturer if you're looking.
I do know of a Free Westinghouse 52F. Worth 0% except to someone who wants parts.

The first sewing machine was patented by Elias Howe 9/10 1846. Isaac Singer patented the first model for home use 1854 (announced in 1851).
it's worth every cent! This is a well built reliable workhorse. I've had mine for over 40 years and it still sews like a dream. It's only been in the shop for minor repairs/tune-ups two times.
I own an instruction book for new home sewing machine model 445 inside this book is a lifetime guarantee and on this guarantee is the date of purchase 02-21-1968. With dealers name and singed by purchaser
Directly from Westinghouse would your best first bet...
No it's not. I just purchased one and it will not see a patch on a thin leather vest. The machine is a good machine but if your looking for an industrial machine this is not the one for you. I thought it was when I bought it, but for 30 bucks I still have a great machine for my lite work!
