I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that you meant Sphinx decals (perhaps you have auto correct
). According to
http://ismacs.net/singer_sewing_mach...ic-decals.html Pheasant was used on 15; 27; 128 from c.1890 to c.1915. The Sphinx was used only on the 27 from the 1890s to 1950s However,
http://needlebar.org/nbwiki/index.ph...ine_Decoration doesn't mention the 128.
I like the Pheasant decals better, but I have three of the Sphinx 27s.
