It is a beatiful turquoise in color and comes in a simple 4 leg cabinet. Not sure if cabinet is original to it.
I'm going to pick it up later today. I understand that everything on it moves freely so I'm anxious to see how it sews.
I also need a manual, preferably free. LOL
Thanks for your help!
NanaMoms, I would be willing to bet your machine is a 15 clone and you will not be able to date it. The clones were made starting after the war in the late 40's through about the 60's. They are very nice machines. Please post a picture! If it is a 15 clone, any Singer 15 manual will do for threading, setting the needle, etc.
