I bought an old Singer Machine off of Craigslist for $20.00, It needs lots of cleaning and repair to the cabinet but I think it is really unique. I also need a belt for it if someone can help me with that??
I think its a model 15 from the info I have seen here on the board, would like more info on it if anyone can help. On the plate on the front it has AF700811 is this the model number?? I am going to try to upload some pictures of it.. so here goes and thanks for any info on this machine.
Great find! What is the cabinet like?
You have a Model 15 with 20,000 allocated on December 18, 1940.
That number is the serial number which gives you all of the above information if you go to the Singer web site.

ps, if you got the 'vintage sewing machine' bug, you are in trouble --as everyone on this list will tell you there is no cure!
