Hello Billy:
I have so enjoyed your posts. In fact, I recently obtained a 1935 Singer 99 in the deco desk with seat. A casual aquaintance, who repairs sewing machines, one the east coast, chastized me for not buying a model 15 instead. I read the on-line critiques for the model 99 before I bought it. All the reports were glowing. He went on to say it was only worth $25 and why did't I buy a model 15. What is the difference? Did I do good or bad for $100? It seems to be a good old machine in need of cleaning and a home. I intend to refinish the deco desk complete with an ink well and an open-up storage seat. I was so happy until he rained on my parade. What is your opinion of the 99 VS 15?
