I bought my Kenmore sewing machine in 1983 from Sears for $100. I was 19 years old and I still have it and love it. Works perfect. How much is it worth today? Probably not much money wise, but sentimental. It was the first purchase my husband and I made to open our first credit card.
My mother gave me her old cabinet machine, Sears Kenmore Model 158, and in the manual she wrote the date 12-2-1968. This date is found inside the cabinet.
