## Protocols Used In This Wiki

### **Purpose of this Wiki**

Lemair produced dozens of models of sewing machines between 1959 and 197x but there exists no record of their names or model numbers. The purpose behind this wiki is to fill that gap using the evidence we have and to use this as a base to find out further details about these models.

### **Scope of this Wiki**

To state the obvious, this wiki is about Lemair Helvetia sewing machines. What can we use as firm evidence that a specific sewing machine is a Lemair model? Well, luckily all Lemair machines were released with the distinctive Lemair badge (except possibly the earliest Helvetia built models). So, if it says "Lemair", it's a Lemair!

### **Primary Source Evidence Used In This Wiki**

Because so little is known about the company and it's products, there is a certain amount of guesswork about Lemairs online. The only way we can be confident about what we are putting into this Wiki is if it is primary source information. Wikipedia defines a primary source as...

> *"an artifact, a document, diary, manuscript, autobiography, a recording, or any other source of information that was created at the time under study. It serves as an original source of information about the topic."*
>
>

I have taken the following to be primary sources:

* A Lemair branded sewing machine (of course!). This can either be a machine in the possession of a contributor to this Wiki, or one that they have examined and verified, or it can be a photograph, for example a machine offered for sale online.
* Newspaper advertisements. I have focused on the Sydney Morning Herald (SMH) from convenience and the fact that the main production for Lemair was done in Sydney.
	+ The SMH is available for searching on the SMH website **HERE**
	+ and on Trove **HERE**. Trove is the online archive of the National Library of Australia, Australia's State and Territory libraries and hundreds of cultural and research institutions around Australia.
	+ Google News has the best quality scans of the newspaper. These adverts can have photographs, descriptions and give us date when we know they were offered for sale by Lemair, the earliest and latest dates can give us a rough date range of when they were produced.

### **Model Naming Conventions**

#### How can you identify a Lemair sewing machine?

* Early models had few identifying marks
* Some had model information at the base of the pillar
* Later models had a name or number on the arm
* They all have a serial number punched into the bottom of the machine
* they usually have a Ja or JC number punched next to it which is a manufacturer's casting number [Cari at Customstyle]
Le Pacesetter (Br FZ-2)

## Lemair Pacesetter (Br FZ-2)

> *The earliest Brother sewing machine to be imported and rebadged by Lemair. Visually similar to the Brother FZ-2. No other mention found of this online to date.*
>
>

### **1959**

* August 16, 1959 - Sydney Morning Herald, p.32 - Earliest advert for Lemair sewing machines found in SMH. Large photograph and promotional text for "Lemair Pacesetter" (Le \_ Pacesetter [Br FZ-2]) and small line drawing and promo text for "Lemair-Helvetia Free Arm"
* Sep 15, 1959 - Sydney Morning Herald, p.15 - identical advert to the one from Aug 16, 1959 with "Lemair Pacesetter" and "Lemair-Helvetia Free Arm".

## **The Base Design**

### **Brother FZ-2**

> *The Lemair Pacesetter sewing machine was built and marketed by Brother in America as the FZ-2 Pacesetter. In 1959 this model wouldn’t have been top-of-the-line, there are adverts online from 1950-1956, so the design was at least nine years old.*

* 1956 Brother Sewing Machines Advert of Pacesetter & 4 other Models  Ebay auction
* Brother FZ-2 PACESETTER Sewing Machine + Case VINTAGE Japan Closed Ebay auction with 24 photographs
* Vintage Japan Sewing Machines Yahoo Group has a number of conversations about this machine plus a copy of the **User Manual**, **Service Manual** and a note about **bobbins** in the Files section.

Le 100 Super Selectomatic (Br HZ3-B3)

## **Lemair Helvetia 100 Super Selectomatic**

> *This is advertised in the 1960 model lineup as the "Super Selectomatic" but close examination of the newspaper graphic shows that is different from the model listed by the same name in their 1964 lineup. Photographs of an example online (see below) show that this is the Brother Model 100 HZ3-B3*

#### **1960**

Feb 14 - Advert, Sydney Morning Herald, p35

Jul 17 - Advert, Sydney Morning Herald, p33

Aug 28 - Advert, Sydney Morning Herald, p25  (see right) Larger graphic than the previous two adverts and more info in the text...

> *This fully automatic Zig-Zag machine has EVERYTHING ... Beauty, simplicity, performance, matchless value. NO CAMS TO INSERT. NO COMPLICATED PARTS TO WORK. JUST TURN THE DIAL FOR THE FANCY STITCH YOU LIKE. Buttonholes with professional finish, over-locking, blind-hemming, plus hundreds of satin stitch patterns ... automatically.*
>
>

#### **1962**

Jan 21 - Sydney Morning Herald, p15 - When you look closely at the graphic in this newspaper ad, you can see from the absence of the Stitch Selector Knob and the replacement of the Stitch Regulator with a reverse button, that the model described as the "Super Selectomatic" is now the Brother Model 210. This continued through to at least 1964.

### **Examples**

Gumtree for sale notice of machine at Thornton, Maitland. The most interesting photo from this advert was the shot of the name on the machine. This positively identifies this machine as the Brother HZ3-B3

## Lemair Sewing Machine Advert - May 28, 1961 - Sydney Morning Herald, p23

   *Lemair advertisement from the Sydney Morning Herald with some interesting details about 'exclusive features' automatic non-clogging thread ejector, push-button reverse & fabric dial as well as information about the two main cabinets. It covers the following machines...*

### **Helvetia Automatic Free Arm**

*"Never before advertised! A valuable machine for those who appreciate the undoubted advantages of famous Free Arm sewing. Exquisite Swiss produced throughout electric portable. Buttonholes, sews on buttons, invisible hemming, twin need, glorious satin stitch patterns, 99 gns. Easy terms, (in carry case)."*

This is a rebadge of the **Helvetia Dominator Automatic**. Produced between 1959-1960 when Helvetia stopped production and went into bankruptcy. There was a rather good German language webpage which had some information on this machine and a manual but it now seems to have been taken down.

Sebastián Peña

Sebastián ya se cansó de ser niño bueno...

**Facundo Sebastián Peña Romería** es un emprendedor y economista saltillense que trabajó en la presidencia de Arteaga como contador y actualmente es dueño de "La Rata Loca", un exitoso restaurante. Estudió administración y economía en la Universidad Autónoma de Coahuila.

Es notable en el MezaVerso por haber sido el protagonista de una de las batallas más épicas y memorables, cuando se enfrentó a Melchor Niño Rata, quien mostró su poderosa transformación y habilidades en plena presidencia de Arteaga.

## Rasgos del personaje

Sebastián es un hombre cortés y amable, de gran astucia y perspicacia. Es respetuoso al orden y la ley pero no tolera los atropellos e injusticias del gobierno corrupto.

También posee una inteligencia sobresaliente, siendo un verdadero prodigio para las finanzas y temas económicos y matemáticos, lo que le ganó un puesto en el gobierno de Arteaga.

A pesar de ser bastante inteligente y trabajar en el gobierno, parece tener ideologías comunistas y ha demostrado en varias ocasiones su admiración por AMLO y se ha pronunciado en contra de la mafia del poder.

En cuanto a sus habilidades de combate, es un guerrero con un desempeño relativamente bueno, aunque no suele pelear ni entrenar frecuentemente, se ha enfrentado a poderoso enemigos en varias ocasiones. Este tema se verá más a detalle en el siguiente apartado.

## Niveles de poder

A pesar de haber comenzado con un nivel de poder de 18,000, demostró una buena habilidad de combate, siendo capaz de enfrentarse a Melchor sin morir en el intento.

A lo largo de la saga del ladrón de garrafones y después de su batalla final contra el Komisario, su poder de pelea aumentó a 21,000.

Con la inminente llegada de los jinetes del apocalipsis, Sebastián comenzó un arduo entrenamiento en el arte marcial del muay thai. A partir de este entrenamiento, aumentó su poder hasta los 24,000 puntos.

## Habilidades

### Persuasión

Gracias a su astucia, amabilidad y habilidades sociales, es capaz de convencer a la gente de hacer muchas cosas por el y ponerlos de su lado.

### Deus Ex Machina

En la batalla contra Melchor se puede observar claramente un Deus Ex Machina cuando Sebastián adquiere una fuerza misteriosa que usa para ganarle a Melchor (quien contaba con un nivel de poder 4500 puntos más alto).

## Anécdotas de Sebastián

* Agresión en el portón
* El merodeador de San Isidro
* Batalla contra Melchor en la presidencia
* Asalto al banco
* De los Durán
* Saga: El ladrón de garrafones

Kaleb Düner \ Arsès Orimis

Kaleb Düner est un Fils de l'Aube, un statut particulier des Elus de Lathandre, et le Protégé d'Isis.

## Enfance

Kaleb est né en 1354 CV, à l'aube d'un jour de printemps, au Bassin du Grand Ver, un Sanctuaire d'Eldath de la région d'Estagund. Il est le fils des exilés Tashbet Orimis, astronome et scientifique de la ville de Skuld, et Ann Ammaeth, fille du Baron Thomdor Ammaeth "le Gardien des Marches orientales" du Cormyr. Par la grâce d'Eldath, il fut baptisé Arsès en 1355 CV.

Durant l'été de 1355 CV, l'année de la Harpe, tous les réfugiés du Bassin du Grand Ver furent massacrés par une horde de tigres-garous enragée par la perte de leur père, tué par l'un des membres du refuge. Mais Arsès, caché par ses parents, survécu à l'éradication. Le jeune orphelin fut trouvé par Simon Düner, puissant guerrier et ancien réfugié du Sanctuaire d'Eldath, et ses compagnons. Épris de culpabilité de son absence et épaulé par ses pairs, il prit soin de l'enfant et le confia à une famille de confiance au village de Pierresang, un village minier abandonné par la guerre de Damarie. Lesrie Brilaen, sa mère adoptive, le nomma Kaleb Düner, en l'honneur de son parrain Simon.

## Jeunesse

Officiellement, Kaleb Düner est le fils adoptif de Holnethan Brilaen et de Lesrie Brilaen.

Depuis 1348 CV, le Roi-Sorcier Zhengyi était en guerre contre la Damarie. Le père de Kaleb fut l'un des meilleurs conseillers du Baron Gareth Dragonsbane. Kaleb ne connu pas cette guerre car en 1357 CV, le Roi-Sorcier Zhengyi fut défait par le Baron Gareth Dragonsbane qui devint couronné "Roi de Damarie", successeur du Roi Virdin Plumesang trahi et assassiné cette même année.

> ***1357 CV** - Dame Alustriel forge une alliance avec Bruenor Marteaudeguerre de Castelmithral et aide les nains à se défendre contre le clan drow Baenre.*
>
>

Depuis la victoire de 1357 CV, l'année du Prince, l'influence des dieux du Bien s'intensifie dans la région de Damarie : des prêtres et des paladins venus du monde arrivent pour repérer les "Elus du Bien" et les former.

En 1365 CV, Thorras Sarisbonde, un prêtre de Lathandre du Cormyr, repéra l'innocence et la force du jeune Kaleb. Fier que son fils adoptif ait été choisi par ce prêtre, Holnethan lui confia Kaleb : sa formation de paladin débuta.

## Aventure

### Révélations

#### Héritage familial

* **Gandur Aileserpent Obarskyr (1060 CV - 1099 CV ✝) :** ancien chevalier de Lathandre, il était un grand-oncle du passé à Ann Ammaeth et donc à Kaleb également. Gandur naquit de l'union d'Azoun Ⅱ et Vladiameska Aileserpent Düner. Il était le demi-frère de Proster Obarskyr (♜1056 DC - 1122 DC ✝). Enfant d'une relation cachée, il dut s'exiler avec sa mère. Par la suite, il eut une demi-soeur, Astania Düner, et un demi-frère, Helnath Düner. Simon et Owen Düner sont issus de la lignée d'Helnath Düner.
* **Ann Ammaeth :** elle était la fille du Baron Thomdor Ammaeth et Pelarra Obarskyr était donc son arrière grand-mère.
Lemair Sewing Wiki

Lemair Sewing Machine Identification

This nested series of pages should help you identify a sewing machine by a process of elimination. I'll start off with the silly. simple ones.

## 1. Is it a Lemair?

### **Does it have a Lemair badge on it?**

* **YES** - It's a Lemair! Go on to the next question.

* **NO** - It's almost certainly not a Lemair. Sorry, you'll need to check elsewhere.*There are only two exceptions that I know of...*
	+ The Helvetia machines were sold with the Helvetia trade name on the side and on the accesory tin and Lemair never called them Lemair Helvetia machines. If it is branded Helvetia and you're pretty sure it was bought in Australia then it could be one of these...

## **Lemair Helvetia 460 Super Flairmatic**

*The early adverts for this machine show a sewing machine identical to the one below as simply the "Lemair Helvetia Flairmatic" but the stamp on the example that I own says it is a "Model 460 Super Flairmatic". I am going to treat the two as the same model. See comments in the base design section.*

**1967**

### **Examples**

* Machine in the possession of Kirok of L'Stok - Gallery on Lemair Sewing Machines Facebook Group .

### **The Base Design**

#### **Brother 190B Super Flairmatic**

The advertisement in LIFE magazine (Vol 45, No 18) on Nov 3, 1958 , p123 shows two machines described as a "Flairmatic", the older model 130 and the model 190 which looks visually simlar to the Lemair models shown here. A closed ebay sale from Aug 10, 2017 , shows a perfect example of a model 130 Flairmatic, which is obviously not the same as the models shown in the Lemair advertisements.

From the following year, as shown by the advertisement in LIFE (Vol 47, No 23) on Dec 7, 1959, p109 this later model is called the model 190B Super Flairmatic - was it given a new varient number and modified name to set it apart from the earlier model 130?

Wrax

Je repeins tes murs avec tes tripes, ça te va ?

Inquisition (Ordo Hereticus)

Wrax est un Garde Impérial des Mondes Sauvages. Et sauvage, il l'est... Membre de l'équipe originelle des PJs, il a acquis au fil des missions une réputation de boucher !

Armé de sa célèbre "tetsubonneuse" - une chaîne et un moteur de tronçonneuse montés sur un gros bâton - il s'est aussi bien distingué par ses faits d'armes que part ses crises de panique lorsque le Warp venait à s'en mêler...

Son exploit le plus notable reste sans doute sa tentative - ratée - de stopper une épée tronçonneuse à mains nues, ce qui lui a coûté la bagatelle de 3 doigts et d'une demi-paume...

Peu découragé, il trouva et s'appropria une arme encore plus grosse, un evicerator à 2 mains, lors de l'exploration d'une pyramide enfouie dans les sous-sols d'une fôret d'Acreage (un modeste monde féodal). Celui-ci était manifestement de très bonne facture, ancien, et ornementé d'un magnifique scarabée. Un parchemin accompagnait cette arme, mais Wrax ne sachant pas lire, il le laissa à l'attention de ses camarades.

Suite à cette mission, l'équipe fut récupérée par un vaisseau de la Deathwatch en transit, mais l'un des colosses de l'Adeptus Astartes ui hurla des choses qu'il ne comprît pas, et il fut mis aux arrêts dans les cales du vaisseau... Sans notion du temps écoulé, il se douta tout de même rapidement que son équipe avait continué sans lui, et il ne put que prier l'Empereur pour qu'il se sorte un jour de là... mais ceci est une autre histoire...

Frank

**Frank** was a contestant on *FairySurvivor: Tower of Trust*.

## Tower of Trust

### Profile

**Introduce us to you! What drives you as a person? What is your aspiration in life?**

I took a personality test today! My top five character traits (out of 34), 4 of them were in the relationship-building domain, and the other is in influencing. Here are the five traits in order: 1-Empathy, 2-Positivity,3-Adaptability,4-Developer, and then 5, in the influencing domain, was “Woo” So I guess you can say I’m a feeler, constantly striving to understand and accommodate for other people. I encourage people rather than try to build on them. Idk if that makes sense
I’m a middle school teacher, and I’m like a cheerleader/coach type, trying to inspire the kids and make them feel like they have someone that believes in them. And my aspiration is that someday I want a family have a great family. I am currently living with my partner, and it’s going pretty well

**Tell us about your previous Survivor experiences. Do you play a lot? What are you looking for in a season that you decide to play? What is your goal in an ORG?**

Besides being the biggest fan and making my beanies babies vote each other out when I was a kid, I’ve gaslit my cousins into playing games I’ve made up loosely based on the show. I’ve actually seriously developed and put a TON of effort into a board game I’ve made. It’s like survivor, but it requires less people, and everyone manages 3-4 characters. It has lots of advantages and fun cards to play with. And I hired an illustrator to refine my 60 character drawings
Online, I used to be pretty active on Tengaged LOL that’s an old one.
I did my first ORG, it was a BOARG, I got 4th and fan favorite out of 18
Then I got 2nd, with two jury votes, I think there were 20 of us! That was a riot, hosted by these guys! And I got best villain and FF again!
This is my 3rd game and I’m nervous
I look for a season where it’s pretty active, people are strategic instead of taking things too personally, and I want to feel like I’m playing survivor. Also I love when the viewers read my stuff! Cause I get pretty analytical and I like when ppl see what I have to say, and react in public chat so I can read it after the game!
I wanna win! I think my strategy is to be pretty outgoing, polarizing, and I want to personally impact the game - like Frank is someone that makes people alter their strategy. I wanna throw ppl off.

**What do you expect from FairySurvivor? Do you have any previous experience with FairySurvivor?**

no experience with fairysurvivor. I have no idea what to expect, except I love the hosts!!!! And I had a lot of fun on Berlin!
**What's a fun fact about you? Describe yourself in 3 words!**

fun fact is that I’m a music teacher, I like to write music, I’m making a COOL board game, I’m going through a lot of anxiety shit rn, but I’m getting better, and I might be running a marathon on my 30th bday in April
3 words: empathetic, energetic, loving

## Red vs Blue

### Profile

Hey I’m Ninja(jajaja) but my friends just call me ja (like josh sans the osh). I wouldn’t say I’m a surviving savant but I’ve survived for 21 years irl so that must mean something. If this season goes well I might start selling merch. 👀

Hey everyone my name is Microus, I'm best known for my time in the recorded round Agency, I'm generally a calm and relaxed kind of person, but I can be very competitive if need be. Oh, and I'll stab anyone in the back if it lets me get closer to winning.

I've played every season of Agency, so far.

Cheetah

**Cheetah** was a contestant on *Fairy's Twitter Survivor: Pirates!*.

## Pirates!

### Profile

Hello! My name is Cheetah and I am here to win the Fairy Survivor Season 3: Pirates! I’d say I’m more of a challenge player than a social player, but that doesn’t mean I won’t do some snakin’ around! One of my strengths is the fact that I’m a person who can make people trust me easily, but saying that it’s also a weakness. The more friends you have, the more chance you have of being betrayed. My goal is to definitely make merge as then I am guaranteed to make the largest decision in the game or potentially win the game. So get ready to get Yeeted on!
**What are three words to describe you?**

Persuasive. Sneaky. Deadly.
**What is a fun fact about you?**

I’ve not made Final 3 in 18 text based survivors in a row .\_.
**Why will you be the Sole Survivor?**

As I have a mixture of skills instead of just being really good at one thing.

Hello everyone! My name is Normoh, and I came here to chew some gum and kick some butt! But honestly I'm a pacifist so anyone got a piece of gum...or...
**What are three words to describe you?**

Kind, Devious, and Clueless.
**What is a fun fact about you?**

I'm left handed, which supposedly makes you smarter, but I'm blonde, so call me chaotic neutral.
**What do you bring to the table that others don't?**

I have the power of positive thinking!
**Why will you be the Sole Survivor?**

I think that through building friendships and keeping a general positive attitude, I can stay on people's good side, making them trust me and by maintaining a decent challenge streak, I can make myself appear like a good ally.

Awticon

**Awticon** was a contestant on *FairySurvivor: Tower of Trust*.

## Tower of Trust

### Profile

**Introduce us to you! What drives you as a person? What is your aspiration in life?**

As for what drives me as a person I'd say accomplishment. Whenever I do something I'm always trying to do my best and learn as I go along. Once I commit time to something I often feel a need to give it my best effort. For my aspiration in life, it would just be to spend my time doing things that make me happy. I don't really have any major life goals or ambitions.
**Tell us about your previous Survivor experiences. Do you play a lot? What are you looking for in a season that you decide to play? What is your goal in an ORG?**

My survivor experience is pretty limited. I've played a handful of minecraft survivors over the years and one text based survivor 5 years ago. I'm looking to have a fun time and hopefully not do terribly. My goal would be just playing the game in a way where I can look back and be happy with how I played, even if I don't get a good result.
**What do you expect from FairySurvivor? Do you have any previous experience with FairySurvivor?**

As for FairySurvivor specifically I don't really have any idea what to expect. I remember seeing these pop up on my Twitter a few years ago and thought that was cool, but that is pretty much my knowledge about it.
**What's a fun fact about you? Describe yourself in 3 words!**

The best fun fact I can think of right now is that the name 'Awticon' has no meaning or origin I just made it up when I was like 12 years old. 3 words to describe would maybe be kind, contemplative and resilient.
Zenniker

**Zenniker** was a contestant on *Fairy's Twitter Survivor: Pirates!*.

## Pirates!

### Profile

Hey everyone! Im Zenniker, some of you may know me as Griffin. I'm an 18 year old from New Hampshire and ive been in the community for 5 years now. I love music, video games and especially Survivor! Some of you may recognize me from various recorded rounds over the years such as Desire, Cynical, Back In Time and Ambition, however now I am here to take Fairy's Twitter Survivor head on!
**What are three words to describe you?**

Likable, Witty, Underrated
**What is a fun fact about you?**

My favorite beverage is Ginger Ale.
**Why will you be the Sole Survivor?**

Survivor has and will always have a special place in my heart, from watching JT win Tocantins when I was eight with my family, to freaking out seeing two people quit in one episode in Nicaragua when I was eleven, the game was something spectacular that amazed me as a kid, and as I grew up I wanted to make sure that I saw every season I could, I quickly became a student of the game and was inspired by every strategic mastermind and notable underdog that's every played. I admire Survivor, and over the years I have whipped up strategies and ideas that I believe can help me win. That ontop of my personality is why I believe I will surprise some people watching this season and take the title of Sole Survivor.
Cold

### Profile

Well hello gamers all across the globe! Around these parts they call me ColdBacon. I’ve been a member of r/ultrahardcore for like six years and I’m in my finale year of high school. Recently I’ve been starting up twitch/YouTube channels for gaming, which has been dope as hell! Well that’s a bit about myself for now, but as far as survivor knowledge I’ve only seen about 2-3 episodes of the show and only played one (and it was a mini one just for fun) so I’m pretty fresh and new to the game so I’m happy to be here :Y
**What are three words to describe you?**

Funny (duh), awesome, dope as hell, etc
**What is a fun fact about you?**

I have japartied in jamaica ;)
**What will you bring to this game which other players won't?**

Well I’ll be a fresh face to the survivor scene and kinda learning as I go, yet I think I could still be a competitor, it’ll be interesting but fun!
**Why will you be the Sole Survivor?**

To be honest fairy and crew I’m not entirely sure yet, but come on it’ll probably happen right?
