Make, model #, serial # maybe? Did machines made in 1948 have attachments?

I found a lot of information I think you will enjoy. I did learn the 1948's did have attachments. That's a beginning.
Good luck, let us know how it progresses.

Machines made in 1948 had attachments, as did machines made in the 1800's. :)

The model number will help, I'm watching ebay now for attachments for my treadles...and I need a buttonholer for my Kenmore! :)

I bought an old sewing basket complete with notions inside and included was a Kenmore buttonholer and I don't have a machine that could use it. PM me if you think this will fit your machine.

That buttonholer might fit my Kenmore...but don't think it will fit a Singer?

According to this list on the Singer website, your machine is a 201, made March 16, 1950.
