Nancy Nancy if my Franklin is a 127 can I use my 27 mauel for this machine? Does it thread the same way as the 27? Kathie Nancy |

An old neighbor gave this to me. Any information would be appriciated. Also I have no attachments or the book for it, only the foot that is on it. Any ideas where I can get them?

I just bought another sewing machine. I do not know what model it is. I went to the Singer site and it gave me the year and location where it was made. The serial number is JA0905778. Singer says it is a 1924 made in Canada. It is in a blond tea cart. The cart is in excellent shape. The light does not work on the machine but it seems to run alright. There are no decals on this machine. I will have Nancy :lol: post pictures later. I love you Nancy :D lol. Kathie

I got my first treadel a White rotary. It is the first that will require Billy's cleaning. I did oil it and it treadels. Serial number FR227331 the last pat date is Sept 12 1905 . I have the book with it but it in bad shape. Can anyone tell me about it. The belt is even good and I have a full set of attachments.

Check out this page. Your serial number shows she was made in 1908. I just bought one today, in a newer cabinet that is a 1920 model. Yours is in much better shape though. Texas Jan |
