White Sewing Machine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The White Sewing Machine was the first sewing machine from the White Sewing Machine Company.[1] It used a vibrating shuttle bobbin driver design. For that reason, and to differentiate it from the later White Family Rotary that used a rotary hook design instead, it came to be known as the "White Vibrating Shuttle" or "White VS". In 1879 it cost USD50 to US$125 (US$1097 to US$2744 adjusted) depending on which table or cabinet it was to be mounted in.[2] The White VS continued in production, with improvements, until the early 1900s.

There was also a 3/4-sized version called the "White Peerless".
