This past weekend my mother gave me a 1952 Premier Sewing Machine. It's a dark green with etched plates on front and back with a built in lamp on the back. I can't find a lot of info on it. I do know it was made over seas and supposedly suppose to be heavy duty. One of the ladies said it was a Japanse 15 clone.

If anyone can give me any info on it I would appreciate it. I would really like to have instructions on how to thread it and the bobin. Like an idiot we left it at my mom's by mistake when we were packing and now I've got a 5 hour drive to go back and get it. I'm really looking forward to spending hours here catching up on all the great info.
