Hi there, I wondered if your members would like to take a look at my knitting  museum website that highlights my substantial collection of knitting machines  (from around the 50’s to date) plus my own notes and thoughts re these  machines and accessories.  Loads of photos of vintage and onward machines,  gadgets etc and as much info as I can glean – hopefully it will provide a  reference point for these wonderful old domestic knitting machines – the  address is http://knittingmachinemuseum.com. I now live in Brittany but hail  from the UK (Scotland). Kind regards, Maggi
