I just didn't notice that the serial number was written on a tag that came with the machine.

Call it intuition, or whatever you want, but I think that machine will probably take CC1221 needles. The eye is shorter to the tip than a 15x1 and I think that a 206x13 is even shorter. I don't know if you will want to try to adjust a 15x1 and then time it, or not. If it was mine, I would read http://myperfectstitch.blogspot.com/...r-classic.html more thoroughly. I'm wondering if someone tried a 15x1 and that is why "the needle ran into something on its way down..."

The decals are still in pretty good shape, including the needle decal in front of the pillar. The needle that was in it matched the decal.
The serial number is clear NHR115359.
