Decal

Filigree

In use from 1911 up to 1952

In use for Classes:

15
66

The common name of this decal set comes from its fine, lace-like metallic scrollwork designs.
It's commonly found on models 66 and 99, but we could also verify a few 15-class machines with those decals, from the factory of Wittemberge (Germany) in particular.

About the data shown here

The information here about the use of decals in factories and classes is based on “Documented Machines” currently recorded in our database. We currently do not have an official Singer source about which decals were in use where and when and on which machines.

Our dataset is continuously growing as new machines are documented and shared by collectors and researchers. As a result, the details presented here should be considered indicative and may be updated over time.

Contributions are very welcome: if you own or know of a vintage Singer machine, please feel free to submit information via the form or contact us to help improve and expand this research.

Do you want instead to identify your Singer sewing machine age and/or model? You can use our Singer Serial Number Database Lookup.
