I assume it is a single letter prefix, but when I go to that page, I do not see anything for 000. Perhaps I'm looking for the wrong number? Thank you for your help! By the way, she came with a lot of bobbins. G- 40001 90000 15 50000 January 8 1910 So it's a Class 15, with 50,000 serial numbers allocated on 8th January 1910 at the Elizabeth New Jersey factory. 'Tis a little confusing at first but after a few tries you'll get the hang of it!! LOL Hope this helps? Bronwyn :lol: A 66 born may 28 1923 All the way down on the list is the double 0's |

I just got a reply to a Craigslist ad for a singer treadle base with a board top --made into a table--asking the price, and the guy wrote $200-firm. Wow, these folks are crazy. I can buy several treadle sewing machines that are complete for that money. Guess he bought it somewhere expensive cause it was "cute" And this is a moving sale..... he will be moving it or donating it, cause I don't think anyone will pay that price around here.

Thanks to this thread, the machine my brother gave me 12 years ago is up and running. I've quickly been spoiled by this 15-30, 1941 stitching marvel.
When my brother asked if his friend could buy one of my treadles, I said no, here's where I draw the line (its hard times for us). I've got everyone looking for these machines for me, since I'm a fair mechanic, it'll be fun fixing them. And who knows, a FW might show up. Sarah weights 29 pounds and I hurt from lugging her to quilt group. Thanks to all of you who take the time to post and answer questions. |
