The story of Isaac Merritt Singer will blow your mind, his wives and lovers his castles and palaces all built on the back of one of the greatest inventions of the 19th century. For the first time the most complete story of a forgotten giant is brought to you by Alex Askaroff.

small part of my collection that changes as I find new and exciting machines. I am holding a Cookson hand built in the 1880's on watch making machinery. I'll probably still be clutching it when they nail me in my coffin! My hair is turning grey but not my love of beautiful old sewing machines.
