Hi,

Nice find. You have a 1908 "Old Style" Minnesota A made by Davis SMco. out of Dayton Ohio and sold by Sears Mail order catalog. Link for similar "New Style" A owners manual. Main difference between the two is the Old A has a flat needlebar and the New A is round and the styling is a bit different. Sounds like you have everything needed to start sewing once she / he is cleaned up and oiled. Enjoy.

Jon
