The New Family was introduced in 1863 and later become known as the Singer 12. It was produced in enormous numbers and was so sucessful it was copied by almost every other sewing machine manufacturer.
Made in 1874 at Singers Scottish Bridgeton Factory, this machine has the Scoll and Roses Decal which has some minor chipping in places. The slide-plate has a circular hole in the end to assist opening and 11 Patent dates are listed starting from Sept 10 1846 which was the famous Elias Howe Patent, through 1849, 1850, 1851, 1854 upto Oct 8 1855.
The tension adjustment is by way of a screw on the face plate.
This machine was made May 27th 1876. Dave found it on a very bitter December day at a local antique fair and just had to bring it home. It is worn in the usual places and the jappanning is chipped in places. The decals are of the scroll and rose pattern but the guard and crank have the Peacock Tail decal. By this date the slide-plate no longer lists the Patent dates and is stamped with the Singer Trade Mark instead.
Serial No. 6759107
1199307
Fiddle base machine dated to 1883. It is in beautiful condition, with hardly any wear to the decals and only minor chipping to the front edge. Unusually it has a bone handle. Rather than the usual bentwood case it slides into a panelled box case with a hinged door.

Serial No. 8515701
2135401
Dated to October 31st 1888. Again this machine has the gold painted decals. There is a little wear to the bed, but only that of use. This machine came as a chance find at a junk shop and was the machine that really started us collecting! The Case of this machine is shown on the Cases & Bases Page
Dating to 1890, this machine has the wonderful 'Peacock Tail' decals which are in very good condition. When we first found this machine it had been butchered for the stand but it came complete with the top, drawer and panelled cover. After several years searching we found a Singer 12 stand on which it could be mounted. This particular stand has the Registered Design Mark for April 1879.
Currently awaiting restoration, this machine dates to 1881. The Singer 13 was introduced c1870 and was designed as a semi industrial machine. It was copied by numerous other Companies many of whom improved the machine by increasing the amount of cotton the bobbin could hold - a basic design flaw that Singer seems to have failed to rectify.
Besides being a significantly larger machine than the Singer 12 the Singer 13 has an extra inspection plate on the bed which makes it easy to identify.
The Singer Vibrating Shuttle 2 was introduced in 1887 and was an improved version of the V.S. 1 which had been introduced just 2 years earlier. The fiddle bed version of the V.S. 2 was gradually phased out with production ending in 1891 by which time an improved V.S 2 with a rectangular bed (later known as the Model 27) had been introduced.
Another lucky find this fiddle based treadle dates to April 7th 1891 came complete with a manual and an original box, full of attachments.
The machine has a bentwood case and a single drawer. The treadle frame does not have the Singer name on the cross brace as on later models. See Cases & Bases Page
Model V.S. 3 Serial No. 8613295.
The Singer Vibrating Shuttle 3 was introduced c1886 and was later redesignated the Model 28. Production continued until c1910 when an improved version - the Model 128 was introduced.
Dated to December 2nd 1889 this machine has been converted from a treadle to a handcrank. It has delicate 'rose & cornflower' decals which are a little faded. Badged Singer SMC N.Y. It comes with a coffin style lid with an elaborate full lengh decal depicting leaves and acorns and a central Singer Badge logo. See a close up on the
Cases & Bases Page
Manufactured in 1890 this machine has the same attractive decal as the above machine but less faded. There is no accessory compartment in the base but it is mounted inside the bentwood case instead. Beneath the base there are three fittings to mount the machine onto a treadle table. The patent date 1886 appears on the front slide plate.
This machine dates to 1891 and although worn the 'Peacock Tail' style decals are still beautiful. Again there is no accessory compartment in the base and the patent is stamped on the slide plate. This machine has a double spool attachment.
Around 1900 the V.S. 2 was redesignated the Model 27 with production continuing until c1910.
The original head for this treadle had very worn decals, luckily we were given this one which had the same sphinx decals as the original and so combined the two. The head dates to 1900 and the five drawer treadle base with plain cross brace dates to 1895.
See Cases & Bases Page
Introduced in 1879, early versions of the Model 15 had a fiddle bed, in 1895 a mechanically and cosmetically improved version was introduced.
This machine has the Sphinx decals and dates to 1904. Suprisingly for this date the coffin lid has the hasp type catch without a lock and the accessory compartment is in the lid, Singer 12 style. Note the low set bobbin winder.
Dated July-December 1918, when we bought this machine the case was locked so we were pleased to find the Lotus decals in perfect condition and the metal work still bright. The side compartment contained the manual, a full range of attachments and spare spools. It only needed a modicum of cleaning and a drop of oil.
The decals on this machine are almost complete, although the metal parts are slightly tarnished. This machine dates to 1920 and is an updated version of the Singer 28, with shuttle eject mechanism, high mounted bobbin winder and accessory compartment in the base. Once cleaned and threaded up it sewed very well first time. The machine came with a small bentwood case.
