The Singer 301 was made in the late 40s-mid 50s. What color is yours?

Billy,

Rather than read through hundreds of posts..I picked up an older singer and finally just got the serial number off her.. she needs work but I was curious how old she might be. 14601109 are her serial numbers I believe..is there a place I can find out the info.? alot of patent numbers too..stopping at Nov 18 1890....

Thanks for any info!

Sharon, I love the looks of this treadle. I don't think I've ever seen one with a coffin top quite like this one. Is it possibly from England?

What do you think?

There are many factors (area and availability, condition, style, etc.) but it's hard to get $200 for a treadle. I just sold a singer parlor treadle for $150. It did have damage on top (the dreaded plant ring), but was otherwise in good condition, and is a far more rare cabinet.

This site is the starting point for looking up serial numbers. All that's available on yours is the year - 1897.

Well if the good Lords a willing I will own another MOP Singer 12 but this one is a hand crank. Almost all of the decals are still there so it makes for a desirable machine. I have to wait until the snow bows over before I can get it but I think it will be worth the wait!!

I will definitely post photos of it when I have it in my paws.
