Seidel and Naumann Sewing Machine in Barcelona Shop

Who has not seen one of those everlasting sewing machines still working like brand new decorating grandma's house? I still remember a veteran Singer parked somewhere at Mom's bedroom. And what about those marble top tables with sewing machine legs. Anyway, here is an authentic beauty, a vintage Seidel and Naumann model. Judging by the decals it seems to be Serial No. 2107675 sold through the company's London depot although the one in the other site's picture has only one spool pin. Perhaps an expert could help with the exact model. I liked the shop display, the illustration hanging on the wall, the combination of black and white, the shadows from the trees nearby and the whole sober decoration with a vintage sewing machine as the main subject. I thought to myself you would like to see something different today.

Barcelona Vintage Rotary Dial Telephone

Do you remember this? Just like an iphone isn't it? Well, they were here not too long ago and yet our kids start wondering what that piece of junk was meant for. I still remember when I had to stick my finger on the rotary dial of one of these vintage telephones and wait till it turned back. Now they are retro collectibles to amuse your visitors. Antique phones still look beautiful though, especially those Western Electrical 51AL Candlestick telephones. But why don't you check the Antique Telephone History Website for more information and some images.

Classic Car Reflections

Hi, this blogger is about to go on his summer holidays. In fact I will leave next Wednesday to the beach for a whole month. I will do my best to keep posting at least once a week. Remember I will be back in September so this is no farewell. In the meantime and till Tuesday I will show you my last work. This is an old picture though. I took it at the retro exhibition last year. The drawings on the side of the car are not clear but the sunny reflections are somewhat interesting. I like the lines of this beauty. Maybe it's a corvette but I don't remember.
