rec.antiques is a discussion newsgroup - ads should be posted in rec.antiques.marketplace
http://www2.hawaii.edu/~claw/sew/ is a good site for antique sewing machines, but I've never heard of 'Volo' - what's the history on them? Remember this is a discussion group...Help us learn something new about something old.

Thanks,

Volo was not a manufacturer but simply a brand name used by a large retailer. Volo machines were actually made by the Davis and the National Companies.

Hope this helps a little
