I found this machine and have spoken to the lady that is trying to sell it for her friend. I asked her for the model number of the machine but it is in another location. She is going there tomorrow and will call me with the info. She told me the top of the case is broken but the bottom is intact. She said on the front of the machine it says Great Britain 99. Does any of this make any sense? Do you think it is the Model 99? Here is the link:

It sure seems to be a model 99, which is sort of a 3/4 size model 66.

It takes a class 66 bobbin, 15x1 needle, it's a straight-stitch only machine.

It looks like a 99 and it's a popular vintage machine. You can still get replacement parts for it if you need to. How much is she asking (can't remember if you already said)? One thing is that they are HEAVY for their size! The first time I picked one up I almost fell over :shock:

Yup, looks like a 99 to me too. Pity we can't see the little medal on the front of the machine.
