A Pink machine? For $5? How lucky can you get.

A Singer 15 instruction book, available for free online download, will work.

Enjoy!

From what Billy (lostin51) told me, they were made by Brother. I bought my Atlas from Billy and love it!!

My tension is on the front but since yours is on the side then you would consider yours to be a model 15 clone. There is a thread somewhere on this board where you can post pictures of your 15 clones.

My hubby had seen a sewing machine case laying in a garbage pile in a mans yard for a long time. This man lived up in the woods in the rainy part of Oregon....loads of rain. The wooden case was waterlogged. He asked the guy if there was a machine in it, "yep", he says then my hubby asked if he could have it, "sure" he says, "take it" (not much of a talker). My husband opened it up, looked inside, and hurried right home. I have a Pink Atlas also! S262296 That case stunk so bad. The machine, thru some miracle, was like new although it stunk too until it aired out. We gave it a thorough cleaning and a new case. I was so excited to have it because I had seen this really flamboyant lady sewing dresses on one in a movie and had fallen in love with her machine. Little did I know I would own one someday. I have several machines but the Pink Atlas gets to do the job when I sew for my little grandaughter. Mine matches the second picture on page 1. Enjoy your machine!

Thanks for posting a photo of your Pink Atlas. It’s different than the first two examples.

I wonder how many different versions of the Pink Atlas there were?

CD in Oklahoma

I've only seen the three shown and I've looked for years on the internet.

Bed logo on mine. One is for sale locally for $70. I am not chasing it.
