    If you look at the serial number underneath and look it up online on the singer serial number website it will tell you what it is and when and where it was made.

    Its an early model 15 and it has the "Tiffany Gingerbread" decals. the numbers that he gave you make it before 1900. The date of the machine is a lot later than that. I am looking at the boss to bolt the motor to and the type of cord connection I am guessing in the 30's but you never can tell until I see the serial number.

    I came up with it's a 15K dated July-Dec 1910 and 150,000 made. I think when it has a K that means it was made in Scotland. I'm sure someone will come up with the right date.
