    Question Can you help me find a manual? Singer Sphinx?

    I found a picture of a machine that looks line mine (it was identified as a 1925 Singer 127 Sphinx Treadle and posted by ancientpoint dot com). Not sure if I have correctly identified it (my SN is G7795582). Any suggestions as to where to find a manual? Thanks!

    It is a 127

    Type 127 in the search box and you can download a free one.

    Thank you! Do you know is there a video or anything out there? For someone not familiar with this machine, the pictures aren't very clear (grainy).

    There might be. Just search for "Singer 127" on YouTube and see if anything comes up.
