Earlier this week at an estate sale I found a really nice old electric Singer model AE513199. Per Singer's registry list this should be a model 201 manufactured in 1935. She is working and for the past 20 years was a decoration in the house. She works with a knee lever. I was excited and bought her yesterday for $72. No manual or spare parts came with her. I brought her home and start looking for a manual on internet. I did not find anything that is a 201 that looks like her. She has a bullet shaped shuttle bobbins. She is portable weighing about 25 lbs. and has a really nice wood round top carrying case. the She has no numbers for her tension or stitch controls. She has a bullet shuttle bobbin. After checking the internet for 2 hours, I decided that she looks like a model 99-13 with knee lever per a photo on ebay. Has this ever happen to anyone else??? That the model registry number is not correct.
I was really excited about getting a 201. I already have a Singer 66 Red-Eye that I just finished refurbishing with Billy's help. The model 99-13 is just a smaller, heavy electric portable version of my 66 but with a different type of bobbin . Any suggestions of where to find a manual for my new 66. Thanks,
