SINGER “Improved Family”, 1891

Serial #: 10488382

Condition: Working

This model, with oscillating shuttle, was produced between 1879 and 1895. Our example was made in   Kilbowie, Scotland, in 1891.  Forerunner of the popular 15K, “Improved Family”  is easily differentiated by its fiddle bed.

Its handsome decals, very well conserved, belong to  Memphis or Sphinx Type, later classically used by  the model  15K.
