I didn't get it for a steal but I did talk it down from $60 to $35.

It's my first locked up piece and my first 15 series. 1939 by the serial number. It's pretty decent to look at, had a large wasp mud nest in the arm and needs oiling. It's actually in surprisingly good condition, the potted motor will turn freely if you unlock the wheel. It does have a light with a separate switch, it has the three pin block and it has to my knowledge no missing pieces.

But the dern thing is just locked up. I have oiled all of the moving parts, I have the presser bar moving yet I cannot get anything else to move. There is a little give and the needle bar will move up and down just very slightly. I cannot seem to see much movement anywhere else. It truly looks as though the machine has been dry for a very very long time.

The pictures are out of order, I have removed pieces in certain pictures and since replaced them. Also the wasp nest is gone, judging by the color its been there quite a while.

Thoughts?
