Pm lostn51, he'll probably know. It sure is cute but looks like it's missing the slide shield for the bobbin area. Billy might have one to sell for a replacement. It sure is a cute machine, I love the front end and the ornate decals.

Isn't "worlds best" the brand name?

I think it's an Alphasew. I don't know much about them, but I "think" it was a division of Singer. ???

That one is either a Chinese or an Indian production model 15. It isnt as old as you would think it is It is in nice shape and looks pretty good, just a nice cleaning and your there!

I can get the slide plate for the machine if you need one (I should have several in stock right now) and any and all parts for that machine are readily available.
