I would like help identifying this vintage machine I have had for a few years. The serial number is AD507594. When I looked it up on the Singer site it doesn't give much info other than the year it was manufactured.

The attachments are in wonderful shape and clean. The machine itself will need a lot of cleaning. I can tell the cord will have to replaced also. And since I am not about to plug the cord in I have no idea what shape the motor is in. I love it though and look forward to sewing on it one day soon.

Thanks for any and all help.

That is a nice 15-91 you have there.

The hemstitcher will work on this machine, it's bed mount and the New Home Rotary (before they got taken over by Free Westinghouse) took the same attachments as Singer.

What Macybaby said. You have the "Eye and Trefoil" pattern decal set on it and it, along with the cabinet and attachments, all appear to be in great shape. It should be a great machine for you. I don't know what the hooked blade thing is.

Oh, cool. Thanks MacyBaby. That makes 2 15-91 that I have. The other one (without looking my info up) is in a blonde cabinet and I purchased it from the original owner. It is a 1950s machine.

Hate to sound uneducated (actually I don't mind) what is the "Eye and Trefoil" decal? Is that the one on the bed of the machine?

I will be combing the Vintage Machine threads to learn how to replaced the cord pretty soon. I have about 30+ machines but have never had to replace any cords yet. I have about five machines that will need them replaced though.

Thank you MacyBaby and Rodney for your help.

The hooked ring thing is a ring finger cutter blade, commonly used by postal workers back in the day. I ran through a few of them!

Thanks momto5 (me too), the machine came with two of them. LOL

My grandfather used them in the laundry he owned. He gave me one when I was in jr. high to use on my macramé cords. Still have it.

Lovely machine and the cabinet and accessories look in great shape! Here is a link to see the many decal pattern sets that were available for domestic Singer sewing machines. You can find yours there as well as ogle the others! http://ismacs.net/singer_sewing_mach...ic-decals.html

Thank you Christy. I have seen that website but not that section before.

And yes, ogling other machines and decals as well. WoW!
