The Befuddled Pfaff

 Spare a little sympathy please. This a befuddled sewing machine and it's suffering an identity crisis!

It is badged Beaumark, but it's a Pfaff. It's a Pfaff from the unique type L bobbins to the "Made in West Germany" label on it. But it says Beaumark on it. How can it be a Pfaff?  Well, that's an interesting story.

Beaumark, now defunct, was a Canadian appliance company that sold a whole range of large and small household appliances in places like the Hudson's Bay stores. I remember buying a Beaumark blender from one in the 1980's. Beaumark didn't make those appliances though. They bought them from other companies and had their names put on them. They bought their sewing machines from Pfaff, just like Sears had their Kenmore sewing machines made by Janome and other companies.

I think it would be much happier if it could just find a new home and do some sewing. It's confusing history could be forgotten and it's capabilities could shine  forth!
