201 machines come in tan (rare) or black. Check out this site:

Miz Johnny that is a very interesting site. Now I know the difference between a 15-88/89 and a 15-90! The 15-90's were electric! They look the same to me except that the 15-90's were electric machines. My 15-88/89 is a treadle.

15-88 was treadle; 15-89 HC; 15-90 electric w/external motor; 15-91 electric w/potted motor.

I took the motor off my 15-90 (needed new wiring), changed the hand wheel to a spoke wheel, and put it in a treadle. I'm so happy that I did.
