Identification needed on vintage sewing machine
My wife bought what she thought was a antique singer from ebay, when we looked at the machine it seemed to look similar in style to the 12k fiddlebase but without the shaped base(maybe singer clone) and the gold badge does not look like any singer badges that i have seen while searching the net, also maybe looks like it also takes the 12/1 rare needles as any needle we have tried do not fit(too big). Any help getting this machine identified(maker and model and year) would be helpful, also on the main black body where some of the gold decals have faded just to the left and under the 1st spool holder we noticed when shined at with a torch 2 words that looks like used to be there but now faded away "The Phoenix".
Thanks for reading and hope someone can help
