Identifying featherweight 221
I am really confused as how to date this machine. On the underside of the machine is:Simanco U.S.A. 45713. On the motor cover it says Simanco made in Canada 1520. I also have gold letters on the front Under the Singer gold seal of M.R. Model #AH321695. Can anybody help me?

The AH Number is the one. I can't remember where to go to find it. I'm sorry. someone will be along to help you. If you google the number and Singer Sewing Machine it says your machine is 1947 I THINK! LOL

According to ISMACS, your FW is one of 30,000 numbers issued Oct. 27, 1947. The next FW numbers were issued Jan. 22, 1948, so yours was probably actually built in November or December of 1947.
