There's even a fiddle bed version. That article is also wrong though too, in that it says (under the 1934 improved Model 15 section) that the model 15 got reverse in the 50s. I have 2 model 15s that have reverse, and neither is as new as that. My oldest one is a 1936, so reverse is as least as old as that. |

Wow - very polite!
Maybe I'll make a bunch of these letters so we can carpet bomb the CL sellers who don't know what they're doing! |

Looks good, but for one thing... The Model 15 has been around since the 1879. :) http://www.sewalot.com/singer_through_the_ages.htm

Bah. Well, at least my letter's more accurate than their information! Didn't most of the 15 clones come about in the 40's? I was taking a stab at when the highest density of the machines started to show up.
