Default Is this a Singer Ardmore cabinet?

I got this well used cabinet at local thrift shop; it came with a lovely Singer 15-91 inside.

I am keeping the sewing machine, but want to list the cabinet on FreeCycle. I want to list it correctly.

Is it an "Ardmore" model?

If the photos and posts online are correct, yes, it is an Ardmore, or at Ismacs it is a #72.

Thanks, Elnan. I got the cinders in my head fired up and remembered Ismacs. They say it holds Class 15, 66, 115, and 127 modes

I couldn't find any labels/stampings on the cabinet, but the oil can bracket is stamped 124952 SIMANCO U.S.A. and foot/knee control bracket is stamped 136264 SIMANCO U.S.A. Yes; I took those off to keep "for later."

I don't have room for the cabinet in my small sewing room or in the "under remodel" house, so I'm going to release it to the wild and find a sturdy carrying case for the 15-91.

It will also hold a 201 and most Japanese machines, and some Necchis, etc. I have the blond economy model. Well, what's left of it is out in the shed after I took all the hardware to repair a nicer cabinet.

I have one in a wooden curved top case, and one in a cardboard box, no case, will probably go into a sewing table. This model is not something I can see myself hauling around.
