Not a giggle, but an unusual model 15. Has a roller foot and seems to have a knee lift. The badge says 15-33 but Ismacs says only model 15 from 1910. Decals are unusual for a 15, too.

Probably well worth $25, but the sign of a truly ignorant owner is that they don't know where the front is.
You can't buy replacement slide plates, unlike the 66 ones (which are also always missing).

Oh! That's possibly my favorite Singer decal! Steve said in another thread that it's possibly the most common Industrial decal. Some of the 15s were truly Industrial machines... and this was one of them:
According to Ismacs: http://www.ismacs.net/singer_sewing_...sses-1-99.html
15-33 Industrial C.B. Wheel feed. Speed 1600. For leather. 16x74

There's a "Singer Domestic" on my CL today, too. I see that sort of thing a lot, but usually they leave out the real brand name and just call it a Singer.

Not a giggle, again, but this is a back clamping 66 with what appears to be a hinged straight stitch foot. I emailed the seller about it, thinking that maybe s/he fabbed the foot, but she didn't understand my question. I've never seen a hinged back clamp foot before. Singer stopped making the back clampers in 1922/23. I think the best view of the foot is the last picture.
