Singer 27-2 Instruction Booklet

Combined Singer 27-2 and Attachments Instruction Book

This Singer Instruction Manual was compiled from carefully scanned, digitally repaired and reconstructed images and text from a pair of original booklets first printed in 1896 and supplied with a Singer 27-2 of that era but is a suitable manual for most Singer 27 and 28 sub-models as well as many other early era vibrating shuttle (long bobbin) machines (please contact me if you are unsure).

The instructional text is the same as for the original documents and does reference charmingly obsolete terms and materials but is also very clear and easy to follow. I added the contents page for ease of use.
