This little machine is 6 1/2 inches tall. It says Singer, Made in Great Britain, Simanco 29962. What exactly is it and how much is it worth?

It is a “toy model” of the singer series (Model 20) manufactured 1950’s in many colors. Most common colors are black and brown, the rarest are red and blue.
This machine ▼ (below) has a solid geared hand wheel and “Simanco USA 29976†is stamped on the underside. The hand wheel and sewing base are a shiny beige color while the rest of the toy has a beige crinkle paint finish. The toy is missing a black handle on the hand wheel. The machine is made of cast metal. It has a table clamp, tension and stitch length regulator. There is a numbered thread route and it sews a chain stitch.
Here’s one in color blue. Value? Under $40

Child sewing machine reminds me of one my mom gave me. I learned to sew on a pink one.
