Is it the oblong or round plaque? Any pics of the whole machine and the ivorine plaque?
If it’s round it’s before 1936 at least.

I reckon a 102c. 1933/ 1934 as it has the metal needle tray, 6 autobrake and a plastic winding handle knob.

Does it not just need an other e clip to hold the knob onto the shaft?
