Jenn, the Minnesota is an Early Davis Minnesota A before they started putting the "A" on them. Bobbins, shuttle, and Davis long needles will work on your new Vertical Feed you got from the museum. Could use the SN# when time permits to add to the collection.

Today I just found out , there are aftermarket parts for almost all singer industrails[/QUOTE]
yup, because a lot of them are still in use! when they get too old to be used in this country, other parts of the world still have them going strong. With the massive power outage in India, I bet the people who had treadles and hand cranks and could keep sewing were pretty happy about it! laura

Oh my, what a day! Used the Morse 300 for piecing today and discovered what a sweetheart of a stitcher it is. The added bonus is the fact that it can be treadled if need be! I now need a Morse Fotomatic.

Jennb,
That machine is not listed at Ismacs but the 61 series is listed and here is a manual that should work: http://www.ismacs.net/singer_sewing_...s0-99/61w2.jpg
