The model number is "model J" and 35 CNS 1982 (on a plaque on the carrying case). This was from Montgomery Wards.
Other markings include NSMCO. This was made possibly in the 50's. The part I am looking for is the bobbin case that has the gear. I am trying to replace this because the tiny hook broke off. Otherwise, the machine works great. I would also like to get a belt for it as well.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Apparently this model was sold under other names, e.g. Compac, Portman, New House. This was also apparently modeled after the Elna Grasshopper.
