SERVICED Heavy Duty Vtg Singer 201-2 CENTENNIAL Sewing Machine Denim, Leather
Electric Sewing Machine with Foot Pedal Control. Serial Number Serial number AJ442961, which dates her to 1950. She has the special blue Centennial badge to celebrate Singer’s anniversary. A lovely machine in great condition, as seen in the photos. Fully serviced (cleaned, oiled, new power cords added, and tested), and now ready for you. Many people use these in sewing tables, however if you need a carrying case we can let you know what we have available. She does not need to be in a table or a case in order to use. She is a “Potted” machine, known for her strong, direct drive train (doesn’t use a belt). She sews a wide variety of materials, including leather and denim. The electric cords to the wall plug and pedal are new, and she has the original Singer foot pedal. She has a working light fixture and features a large work area. She has the special Centennial badge & comes with a Singer buttonholer, Singer zigzagger and Singer blind stitch attachment with instructions, Singer attachments, Singer screwdriver, bobbins, needles, etc. We are also including a printed copy of the original manual. This machine uses “low shank” attachments, which are readily and available and inexpensive online in case you want to add another specific one to your collection. This is such a PRETTY machine and so hard working! Straight stitch, with adjustments for pressure and tension. Bobbin winder with extra spool pin and tension, for winding the bobbin while you’re sewing if desired. Generous harp area (work area between needle and right side). Thread cutter behind the needle bar. “Potted” gear drive motor with no belt ever needed. Darning & free motion work option (feed dog lowering knob under the machine). She is a standard size machine with a bed measuring 14 5/8″ long and 7″ front to back width / depth. Our Singer sewing machine consultant worked for Singer for YEARS. He verified that this is a heavy duty machine, good for sewing denim, leather, etc. (at home, not in industrial amounts). A few small dots of black automotive paint touch-ups, mostly on the balance wheel – covering normal chips from over the years. You’re going to love her. We have many antique and vintage sewing machines and sewing collectibles – see our other items. Please see all photos for detailed description.
