That vintage porn is fascinating! More for the ads than anything else, but still an amazing time capsule. SIM Computer Dating? in the 70s?! And they even drew guys in with the same type of crap the online dating sites are using today - "Girls are dreaming about you!"
I wonder if maybe Miss Clayton was a spinster seamstress, and all the porn belonged to her young male caregiver...
I'm afraid you missed the call on the downstairs sewing machine, though. It's a treadle type, and the machine itself was probably safe inside the "box" on top. They fold down, as demonstrated in this video: https://youtu.be/nu9AYX0H7is?si=w7Wj7fAwxjH8HTgn&t=498 If you ever get back there you might want to peek under the lid. Those old Singers are quite ornate and beautiful!
The machine upstairs was electric, so not related to the one downstairs. Someone clearly had a sewing addiction!
Thanks as always for sharing your finds. 💜
