Does anyone know what size class bobbin and bobbin case is used for a Hallmark Belvedere Adler 430? I bought this machine at an auction for $8.50. It is in v. good condition, but no bobbin case or bobbin. It sounds great, no manual. It was very dirty with lots of fuzz, but I cleaned her up, but can't do anything with it until I find a bobbin and bobbin case. Anyone have one to sell, otherwise I need the above data.
Thanks much in advance.

I saw some discussion about Adler machines on Victorian sweatshop recently

A picture would help (preferably 640x480) of the machine and bobbin area. I'm guessing that it probably is a 15 class bobbin and the bobbin case could be either a "1 o'clock" or "11 o'clock" position. If so I know I have gotten some bobbin cases from sew-classic. The 15 class bobbins can probably be found locally at Joann's or other sewing shops.
