Little Mary Mix Up Sewing Machine

The Little Mary Mix Up toy sewing machine is from Joseph Schneider, Inc. but does not show any identifying marks on this solid little machine.  It is quite heavy with a sheet metal body and a solid geared handwheel.  It was made in the 1930's. 

The 1934 and 1935 Sears, Roebuck and Company catalogs showed a green toy sewing machine that looked like this for $1.00.  How times have changed!!

As with all old toys, this one is scuffed with play and "old age".  The needle is missing but the handwheel turns easily.  It would be a nice addition to a collection sitting among your needlework books and other goodies.
