The challenge is to find all the different named variants that they made. It may be an impossible task as it seems stores or distributers could order these machines with any name wanted, and we have seen about a dozen or so different names over the years. The one below marked "Emporium" is the first we have seen, and the same with the "Little Lady. Below is a good beginning in the quest and includes some nice examples.
"My
Lady" TSM Toy Sewing Machine in Original
Box This is a rare variant, and a great looking
antique child size sewing machine. Note that the wheel is stepped to
accept a belt indicating that this machine could have been mounted on a treadle
at one point, or still could be. They are tough to find in the box
like this one is.

antique child size sewing machine. I am not sure if the box is
original or not, and it certainly needs a bit of repair on one end. It did
do a good job ofprotecting the machine, and it is in great condition.

"Little Lady" TSM Toy Sewing Machine in Original
Box I have never seen a
Stitchwell / Little Lady before, and I have never seen any National Sewing
Machine Co. TSM by any name in a suitcase box like this one. I am not sure
if it is factory, or owner built by some little girls dad back when she first
got it in the 20's or so. The machine is carefully and well mounted to a
piece of oak that perfectly fits into the box. The box is outfitted with
an area for spools and a box for accessories. Very different, and Nice!!
