Is there a site that lists the original retail prices of the Singer Featherweights? I have found original advertisements but they haven't any prices.

I just saw three of these at a local antique shop. One was $325, and the other two were $500. All were in their original cases. I didn't look at them closely, because I'm not sure I would know what to look for, and I don't have the money to buy one right now!

Those are the prices listed in the Bobette blue book $88.00 -$149.00. I have personally seen original receipt from one sold in 1936 for $69.95, the purchaser promised to pay $5.00 per month until paid.
