Met a cyber friend..a guy,(thought i was talking at a woman for months!) anyways..he met me at my sewing group on wednesday, and here is what his mom left him
and the email he just sent me:
"My Featherweight is SN: AE721278
Especially since you like the history aspects, do you know about this Serial Number stuff? I have two different SN lists from Singer and I believe the more detailed list but am concerned that both lists don't agree.
From
http://www.singerco.com/support/serial_2letter.html
AE-064.366 to AE-365.140 were made in 1936
But from
http://www.singerco.com/pdf/SINGER_AE_nos.pdf
AE- 699591 749590 15 50000 November 4 1937
15 is the (Model No.)
Do you understand this??
And, what does 'allocated' mean? They could not have manufactured 50,000 machines on Nov 4th!! No way! loll"
Any help of info i can pass on to him, would be greatly appreciated! Kim
(i wish it was mine!)
