Fact: Good Housekeeper has nothing to do with Good Housekeeping magazine.

General information from Google:
"Sewing machines manufactured in the 1960s usually have the model number on the machine's front panel above or below the stitch length controller. On machines manufactured before 1960 the model number is located on a small plate on the front of the machine."
However; there are some lesser known brands that do not follow this general information and hide their model numbers in other places.
Very little is known about this brand and some people do not look at the name and just assume it is 'Good Housekeeping' so it gets even more confusing.

I have provided some links that may be able to help you identify your machine and help you with finding parts. It does seem that parts may be difficult to find.
You will have to join each group to ask questions but you should post on several sites as each site may provide different information.
Post the same pictures you have here and ask for help but it will be best to state what problems you're having.

Thank you for the links to groups who can help with information about these sewing machines. I have my mothers. My father said he bought the machine from a traveling salesman.

He said the salesman demonstrated the machine by sewing through a leather belt which impressed by dad so much that he bought her the machine.

If your machine was manufactured since about 1990, look for the model number on the hand wheel side of the machine near the on/off switch or the electric cord receptacle. If your machine is from 1970's to 1980's the model number is on the front panel of the machine.

I believe it is a 70's model. When you say 'front panel' exactly where is that please?
Thanks!
