    $35 did I do good she purrs like a kitten and is very clean.
    Serial # is AG647013
    I think she is a Model #15 I went to the web site and for that serial # it said 15 quanity 20000 on April 8 1946. Not sure if that is right if someone knows differently let me know. Foot peddle and 2 bobbins is all that I got with her. But that is ok I just want to do stright stitch with her. Can't find a manual went to web site said could no find for that serial # But the I went into the manual section and the only 15s are treadle but down loaded the manual for free and see if it has me thread the right way. If any one knows anything about her let me know.

    I know she isn't a featherwight (shes heavy) but for the price I just couldn't pass her up.

    Needs a little more cleaning up

    That looks like the 15-91. A very nice machine to work on. You can drop the feed dogs & therefore are able to do FMQ. I got one recently too & am just getting started with her. Congrats on a great find!

    Cross post your pictures & questions in the Vintage Sewing Machine thread: http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-43881-1.htm

    A nice group of people who have vintage machines & know where to point you for the resources, including a manual, additional bobbins, etc. See you over there! (I have nothing but vintage machines, but am still learning about my "newest" - the 15-91)
