Nope, the vertical bobbin kind, all metal, with cams for special
stitches (anything but straight). Probably predates yours by 5 - 10
years. Still sews, but don't challenge it with anything but "normal"
fabric for the 50s. (cottons, wools, NO polys or stretch).

Was it the drop in bobbin kind...terrible! What?I really loved was
the ability to sew wool-geogette-denium,all grads of cotton,
velveteen etc without throwing a hissyfit. The sales demo even added
leather and a piece of Balsa wood! I purchased it about the time the
invisable zipper was coming to use. The steel regular zipperfoot
beat the accommodatorwith great ease. I came to really appreciate my
all metal model after using one of my mother's new and Approved
light weights with plastic gears!!!?
