Oh, you are a life-saver!
Okay, maybe that is overstated a bit but today I started the hunt for needles for the 187? LA Davis I have here. I stumbled upon this post through a web search.
I am ecstatic to have found this information. Off to try and locate this needle. And a bobbin tyre.

Any other machine should not use this needle that I know of (maybe a White from the 1870's?) other than the industrial application the MTx190 was originally intended for.
