Hi JennieB: We do love pictures here... Allow me. here is a listing form a couple years ago for a "New Automatic" does yours look like this?

If so it looks like a Singer 128/127 clone (made using the expired Singer patents)
If it is even close to this condition, it should be a great machine to sew with.
