Mine is a flat tension, vibrating shuttle, Series A and I was lucky enough to find the manual on Needlebar.
There is a picture of mine on page 466 of this shop.

Wow Judy, my New Home is much newer than yours. What a beautiful machine and cabinet! My machine had a motor, now missing, and had to be made after 1930 because of the serial number preceded by letters.

Your machine is much prettier, but I like mine too!

Nancy,
The serial number on mine is L054685. So even in 1891 they used a letter before the numbers. Thank you for the compliment on my machine and cabinet. Took a lot of work to get it to that point.
