Not mine but interesting.

I have one just like it. The gold plated motor is a work of art. I have no idea why they would do that, but the machine has class even on the inside. The motor is nearly silent. Kind of strange that they have an electric light and spring motor, (mine has it too). Anyway, they are a very nice machine.
