66-14 side clamping with reverse
66-14 thru 66-24 reverse and side clamping
66 was made between 1902 and 1956
This is what I found out when I was doing all the research on side clamping versus back clamping 66's.

This is where I got this information.

My Egyptian Lotus 66-1 (back clamping) was made in 1908, according to the serial number listed on Singer's website. It also shows other runs of 66's in 1908, but I have no idea if they are 66-1's or not... probably so. So there's an error somewhere: Either the ISMACS site or Singer's records.
I have two Lotus 66-1 with back clamps; one 1907 and the other 1914. Taken from the Singer site.
The ISMACS site is wrong with the information on the 66, some of it is right but this information is old and out of date.
