I responded to this super informative post by asking if they had a model number for the machine.
http://portland.craigslist.org/mlt/atd/3071850189.html Antique black 1937 singer sewing machine. looking to sell the machine even if it means selling the parts to refrubish another black 1937 singer sewing machine. Also have another older sewing machine that has a table in which the machine comes out. just selling the machine. I will have to check. I will be back in town in a couple of weeks and I can text the model number to you if that is okay Why list something if you aren't even there to sell it?! |

BUTT >>>> new home built there first machine in 1860 I just called on a c/l add for a free anti - Q machine.. hee haaww.. guys says his sister did the research it's a 1917, he starts reading off numbers , doesn't know the brand, yet has numbers ???? Finally standing right in front of it he say's remington, Thinking Dam O boy...... Turn's out it's blue, and has a motor....pretty ahead of it's time = 1917 or 1971 ??? I've been told my singer 237 is antique, but then she is 23 and at the time I had 5 treadles sitting next to the 237 LOLOL.... so what are they ? O the free one is in eugene or |
I would have had it been black and had a pedal, but blue and a motor ?? wellllllll , doesn't sound like a 1917 and maybe a bit to advanced for me.. it didn't sound like it was worth the 20 $ drive..
beside I have a blue machine.. ya want it ? lolol it's vintage !!!! http://i922.photobucket.com/albums/a...100_8889-1.jpg |
this add has been running for weks now, each week they cancel and relist to stay on top. machine look decent but the price ,, come at best $125.
Then tonight I look at portland he must have look in eugene's add LOL. the portland add , is it just me or is there something wrong with this picture ? after all that manual says 201e. How old is that machine ?? In view of the fact that a scammer may buy it , I vote he should keep that rare machine so his kids can say it was grandpa's http://eugene.craigslist.org/art/3060211746.html http://portland.craigslist.org/wsc/atq/3072418097.html |

Singer's model 15, first introduced in 1870, has a round bobbin. The 27/127 and 28/128, first manufactured in 1885, have a bullet bobbin. So it wasn't an all at once switchover.

the one in portland sure looks like a 66 to me. along with he has a 201 manual, from what I have and seen singer used flowers for the decals until about 1900, somewhere in the 20's went the plain singer and scroll work . The crank is singer but no decals. it looks like a 7 diget serail number which would be correct for the yr listed.

Lol at the picture in this listing
