Almost any vintage Bernina, Elna...oops you only asked about Singers..

I've always picked up any accessories at a reasonable price, buttonholers, zig-zagers, rufflers (I must have 15 of 'em and I'd love to get rid of a few at this point, they're in almost every box!)

OK, I can see what the Rocketeers and others look like, but what are the 19 - 50 and 19 - 51 machines? Are the treadle machines? For some reason, I can't get them to come up in google.
you might be googling the wrong #. 15-91 and 15=90.
15-91 good for heavier sewing, FMQ,not industrial.
201 is a gem for piecing, general sewing, my favorite.
401 is first machine for good zig zag, etc.
301 great for carrying to classes, no zig zag, cheaper than 221. I'd stop before the 600 series.
