I like this a lot better than Singer's site:
http://www.ismacs.net/singer_sewing_...-database.html
Where Singer will tell you that a machine with serial number G2606143 that I have here is a 1913 model.
Ismacs will tell you:
[TABLE]
[TR]
[TD]G- [/TD]
[TD] 2584401 - [/TD]
[TD] 2609400 [/TD]
[TD] 27 [/TD]
[TD] 25000 [/TD]
[TD] January 6 [/TD]
[TD] 1913 [/TD]
[TD] St. Johns [/TD]
[/TR]
[/TABLE]
Which means Serial numbers from G2584401 to G2609400 are model 27s and part of a batch of 25000 machines who's serial numbers were allocated on January 6, 1913 and built in St Johns, Quebec, Canada.
The only gotcha on that site is make sure that you get the right number of digits. If I missed a digit (6 instead of 7), I could have mistaken it for a 15 made in 1910. Of course I know the difference, so I would have looked again, but for someone new to the old Singer models, it would be a fair mistake.
Of course we all love pics too.
