    That is not a 201. That looks like a Singer 66-2. I recently was given a machine head that looks like this and it is a Singer 66-2.

    You just need to "copy" the http://www.whatever-site-it-is and then "paste" it into your reply.

    Oh, thanks....a girl can hope :mrgreen: I've read so many good things about the 201's that I have been on the look out. I wish people could post better photos of whatever they are trying to sell on Craigslist so that the person who might like to buy it can actually see what they may be buying. My "favorite" :roll: Craigslist photos are the ones that only show the back of the sewing machines. There are quite a few one eBay that do that also!!!

    Or - they don't pull their listing when it is sold. Just called on the $50 Singer 15-91 - SOLD. Bummer :(
