I have found a couple of websites that were quite helpful!:<br />\http://www.threadsmagazine.com/item/29198/identifying-vintage-sewing-machines <br />and http://www.mysingerstory.com/ This last one is a Singer online database that will tell you exactly what year it was made. They let you print out a certificate as well!

If you can read the serial number on the front of the machine just go to Singer and you can find info on your machine.<br />www.singerco.com/support/machine-serial-numbersConnie Kresin Campbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02522467890442085228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2904632709000806854.post-4722342809964820852015-03-19T03:04:32.999-07:002015-03-19T03:04:32.999-07:00Wow I love the Singer and how the decals look on t...Wow I love the Singer and how the decals look on the base plate. I have a cast iron Singer but not as vintage as yours. I have a note that says the first Singer was patent in 1851. have fun.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07340659061418703537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2904632709000806854.post-85230056491022320782015-03-16T08:14:35.072-07:002015-03-16T08:14:35.072-07:00Congrats on your find.

SInger did have a plant in Canada manufacturing machine. I have multiple vintage singers: a 99K, 128, 328, 301, 500A and a 66 with Redeye decals. There are vintage sewing machine facebook groups that share instruction manuals in their files. Yes, check your threading and your needle position, some needles go in differently than more modern machines. Good luck and have fun. JoanneAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
