I'm curious is how you found out the year of your 319. When I called Singer to try to date mine, all I got was a range of sometime between 1956 and 1962.
As Mickey2 mentioned there are some that have changed 319s to accept and use 15x1. From what I have read, part of the reason would so one would be able to use more sizes of needles. I know Sew-Classic carries the 206x13 but only in two sizes.
