Pretty machine! When I was looking for a 15 or 115 the kind folks on this board said that a 15 is an oscillating hook and the 115 is a rotary. I bought a 115 which they also said was a little more rare. Plus, since it is a rotary hook it has a bit better tension when making quick turns. Enjoy your new baby. Her cabinet is gorgeous! Mine came in a rather plain 5 drawer maple treadle cabinet and has the Tiffany Gingerbread decals too.

You do have a very nice sewing machine. I often wonder about the travels of the sewing machine that were made in Europe and are now residing here in the US. What a story they could tell if they could.

looks like a model Singer 15, love the cabinet, beautiful.

oh my goodness. I love her. I think she is pretty just as she is. Bet you have a name for her already. She is wonderful. Wish I could help ID her, but haven't a clue. Thanks for sharing the picture.

The stamping of the serial numbers isn't always easy for me to read. I am wondering if the alpha on your serial number is a "G" rather than a "C"? If yes, here is the information I found on ismacs:
[TABLE] [TR] [TD]LETTER G-[/TD] [TD]REGISTER NMBR FROM 5862331[/TD] [TD]REGISTER NMBR TO 5912330[/TD] [TD]MACHINE CLASS (MODEL NO.) 15[/TD] [TD]QUANTITY ALLOTTED 50000[/TD] [TD]DATE ALLOTTED January 3[/TD] [TD]YEAR ALLOTTED 1918[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] Below is a picture of the serial number on my machine. I read mine as a "G". I pasted the ismacs info for this serial number too showing that my machine is a 115: [TABLE] [TR] [TD]G-[/TD] [TD]4663716[/TD] [TD]4673715[/TD] [TD]115[/TD] [TD]10000[/TD] [TD]May 3[/TD] [TD]1916[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] |

I checked my serial# and for sure it is a 'C'. The letter is san-serif. |
I have a 66 singer, a 1591 and a 99k. And they all work. Love them.
Love your machine. Do you have any more antiques? |
