That, and the fact that there is nothing with it other than a needle and a bobbin. Thank you for your information!
Just because it looks like someone elses machine doesn't mean it's the same year as theirs. Go by the ISMACS records but be sure you're counting the right number of digits in the serial number. Decal sets were sometimes used for many years, others just a few.
