Too bad they want $300 for this Singer 15 with Wings
This is a picture of the machine from an add that has been up for a while. He wants a lot for this machine.

It has a nice base, manual and attachments. Wish he didn't want so much for it.

Yes, sorry its a 115, it says so on the manual that he took a picture of.
I know the modern 15 machines well, but is there an older original 15 that is different from say a 15-90? is this that model?

The older 15's look about the same as this 115, just different decal patterns. I don't think they are significantly different than the more modern machines - just modifications over the years. I've been looking and looking for an older 15. Found one in a treadle cabinet, but they wanted to much and I didn't want another treadle base.
BTW - I payed $49 for mine, and it is in very nice shape - just the head and attachments. However they sold the Lotus they had for $15, and it was gone before my friend called - or I'd have taken both.
The 115 takes a different bobbin and bobbin case than the 15 - but you can get new bobbins - they are not Singer, I forget which ones fit, but someone posted it on this board not too long ago.
