Sewing Machine

I have bought a sewing machine by the Smyth Horn Co from a bookbinder who is going out of business. I need needles and hooks for it to make it work. Does anyone have any suggestions on where to look for them?

Straight needles, you can use National

Curved Needles, they need to be custom made.

Ask smyth if they still have a manual and Partslist at hand,
