I'm not sure where it came from, but this machine was in my attic. I think it came from my father-in-law's house when he passed, but I don't know who it belonged to. Does anyone have any info on this brand?

One of the thousands of Singer model 15 clones. Very nice looking machine. Probably made in Japan for some American company with their badge on it. Should sew like a dream.

What a wonderful surprise to find when you're up in a hot nasty attic. Congradulations. And better still, you know the history of it.

I just got my "Japanese 15" as I've seen them called running. You can easily get new belts, or cords or whatever you need on any site that sells singer parts. It sews beautifully. I think I'm going to love it, and I think you will too!! Enjoy.
