    It's always nice to have a spare. It was nice of them to think of you.

    It looks like the ones we used in Home - Ec. Have you contacted the Spiegel company for any info they may have?

    I was given a Singer when I graduated from college in the late 60's and it was the same color - I should have kept it, but I wasn't as smart as I am now!!!!

    A lot of times those older machines work better than the new ones. What a great friend!

    I need you to get me the JA or JC numbers that are on the machine and post them. These should be cast on the bottom and you might have another set stamped on the side of the machine by the plate with the model number.

    I am currently doing research on the Japanese machines (The model 15's to be exact) on how to date them and to see who and where they were manufactured. The JA and JC numbers help me alot in finding out the original manufacturer but it is up in the air about dating them.

    But if I was to guess your machine would be in the mid 60's to the early to mid 70's.

    I need to keep track of you for that "new" machine a lady gave me called a "Fleetwood" ... When Christmas is over, maybe? <g>

    That is so neat. I love the plate listing what needle to use with different size threads.
