The black one is a Singer 201-3. I have the identical machine. This is the model of the 201 that is most commonly found in Canada. This machine is powerful and fast. I bought mine to sew zippers in coveralls and snowmobile suits and it just powers through denim and duc. It sews rings around my Janome 6500 and the feed dogs will drop to let you FM quilt. This is a good machine and is often referred to as the best machine that Singer ever made. It was known as the "dressmakers" special and mine was used to make costumes for a theatre group in Toronto in its previous life.
