I hope you got the buttonhole attachment, etc. with. If you didn't get a manual with it, you'll probably be able to find a pdf manual online. These metal Kenmore machines are easy to maintain. Congratulations on your score!
THANK YOU. Yes, it is a 148.13101. SN: 65306. No Attachments or extra bobbins. BUT the bobbins look like ones I have in my stash But it's very clean. No smoking/no drinking home so it's really nice. I hope to take it for a ride this week. I did manage to find a "manual" but the photo doesn't look quite the same. I just needed to know where to oil. I'm excited about having it in my stable.
Green is my favorite color so I'm double jazzed.
