I'm sorry, I tried to resist, I really did.

Cheryl you have a 9W and depending on the serial number it could have been made from the left over parts from the W&W purchase. But the Date on the machine is way off you are looking at somewhere around 1910. A very nice purchase for$30!!
I hope it came with some extra needles, bobbins and accessories that would make the deal even better. But I think I have found a good replacement needle for the 9W I just have to try it out when I get a chance. But the needles are obsolete for the machine and they are pricey. It takes a Boye 18.

Cheryl,
Here is a picture of my 9W that I recently picked up. The serial number is found on the back of the machine. Mine is W22105; from the Singer site this machine is from "beginning 1911", but records are lost for the manual. I think mine is a 9W7, but I'm still researching. Yours looks like mine.
