Welcome to the board. There's some interesting information about the Minnesota machines here - http://www.searsarchives.com/history...ons/sewing.htm

Minnesota Model E given to sister in law
Does it look like this one? It has a vibrating shuttle. Not a rotary bobbin. Older design, but it should be able to work well.
Pictures have to be shrunk to tiny sizes to fit here.

Sears contracted with many different companies to produce their machines, so without a picture we can only guess who actually made it.
I believe the one in the post by LeonF is made by White, but made to use Singer type needles and shuttle (as per Sear's specs). I'm pretty sure I own one like that because I fell in love with the cabinet it was in.
