Hey cabinqltr, thanks for the link. I went and looked at the photo for our Model 266, and it shows all of the features by arrow. Item “L” is “SEWING LIGHT (IN BACK) OPTIONAL EQUIPMENT”, so the light was an option. We probably didn’t buy the light for our first one, and neither did the folks that we bought the second machine from.
This little wards 266 machine is starting to remind me of a Singer 192 Spartan. "No frills".
