QuiltnCowgirl that, I am pretty sure, is a Model 15. Look where the tension is - on the face of the machine. A Model 99 has the tension on the front side like most machines. Also, a Model 99 is a 3/4 size machine. Anyone else? I would bet on it being a 15.

So both of them are Model 15? Seems like the $50 one would be a great deal & I should grab it?
By "both of them" are you referring to your pictures and the second posting of the machine someone is asking $150 for? No they are not both Model 15's. The one with the $150 asking price is probably a Model 99? Miz Johnny what do you say?

Anyway, no they are not both 15's. Look at the machines -- the thread tension is located on different places and the $150 machine looks to me to be a 3/4 size Model 99.

And Yes, for $50 (you may be able to talk that down a little) the model 15 is a great machine. I have a 15-88 (treadle) that I use daily and love it! The Model 99 that is for sale for $150 is over priced.
