I'm sorry you had such a bad experience trying to date your Domestic. Coincidentally, I called today to date mine and received a date, 1948, and was asked whether I needed anything else. The lady who helped me was named Rita. Maybe you should call them back. Also, as far as I know these machines were not made in Japan. Jan The model# is 264R, serial# is 6246 and it does have 'J-C9' and 'J-A23' on the underside. Around 4a this morning, I was finally able to locate a free copy of the original owners manual. |

I wonder if there are electric cords/foot pedals with the three prong plug that is enterchangable with the 99?? Maybe someone could let me know via a pm. I also need manuals for her too. :) Thanks for any help.
I forgot to mention, I got her for $11.50. But she needs work! Sharon I am attaching some pictures of her :) Nancy |

It was born in 1950 and it has a potted motor-- I have one from 1905 and the motor is bolted behind the pillar not high up like the potted motor. I thought they would be the same. Did they still use the potted motor in 1950? I had to disconnect the cord to take it out of the cabinet. I noticed the finish where the stitch regulater is the same as the machine. I don't think there is a separate cover piece. This came in a cabinet.. Queen Anne legs. Lots of scratches so I'm going to sand it down and then paint it. Anne
Congratulations on your new 15! I love those 15'. Nancy |

My understanding about the blackside stuff is that there were what they call running changes. They would just dump new parts and accessories in the box and you might just have something that the person who put it together just grabbed different vintage parts as they assembled it originally.
Or I suppose it's possible some were replacement parts. I think they went to the blackside during the war years when chrome was needed for war material not the home front. Tho I'm not sure how many domestic sewing machines were produced. Somewhere I saw a badged RAF (UK Royal Air Force ) machine, don't remember if it was here :) |
Found a website with decals for the F/W's for those of you that were asking a while back.
www.whitesewingcenter.com/page2.php They have 3 different styles. |
