Davis Sewing Machine Company
- Davis Sewing Machine Company
-
The Davis company began in 1868 in Watertown, USA and later moved to Dayton, Ohio in about 1890. Davis sewing machines had no conventional four motion feed (invented by Allen B Wilson and used in most other machines) as it is the needle bar and presser foot that moves the cloth forward so it is sometime referred to as a walking foot or vertical feed machine.
The Davis company went bankrupt in 1924

A rare Davis vertical feed machine from around 1890.
