    According to charts I found on line it was made in 1936. https://www.contrado.com/blog/wp-con...compressed.pdf

    This machine was made in St. John’s, Quebec, Canada factory. There weren't as good records kept and even the earlier Singer serial numbers had errors. The dates for numbers you find in various lists are the day those serial numbers were allocated, not necessarily the date they were made. Since your serial number is JB730196 I would guess that it was closer to the ending date of 1948, when they would have started the JC numbers. As indicated near the bottom of the web page https://www.singersewinginfo.co.uk/stjohns

    We like pictures. In order to post pictures on Quilting Board, you will probably need to reduce or compress the picture to a file size that is smaller than 2MB. How to post images can be found at https://www.quiltingboard.com/attach...020-01-17-.pdf and on an ipad at Posting Pictures From an iPad

    Don't forget to scroll over to the far right to find and click on the "Upload" button. As shown at Standard Sewing Machine Co. Paragon

    I have found that only the big red "Reply" button or "Quote" work to give me the paper clip icon to work for adding pictures.

    Some additional info regarding reducing images at post #4 and images for the scroll and upload button can be found at #5 of quilt block ID?

    Another way to post pictures can be found at 2021/2022, 2.5” Birthday Swap
    And how to use an ipad to post pictures can be found at Uploading photos and Posting Pictures From an iPad

    Or simply - Make sure pictures are smaller than 2MB
    Click on red "Reply" button
    Click on the paper clip icon
    Click browse - choose picture/s. (only 5 allowed per post)
    Once they show up as being loaded, Scroll over to the right side and click on "Upload"
    After the pictures show up as being attached, you can close that window and go back to the screen to finish posting your post.

    Some additional notes -
    The photos generally need to be reduced to less than 2MB in size. I have heard of people sending an email to themselves as it will ask if you want to reduce the size.

    I have an android phone and when I tried to reply on Quilting Board while in mobile view None of the options for adding pictures was available. However, there is an option down at the bottom left of the page that is for Full Site when I tapped on "Full Site" It then looked like the way it looks on my lap top. So it would have the Red Reply and the Go Advanced options.

    Do Not Preview post.
