15 STYLES of Singer Puzzleboxes
Singer made at least 15 styles pf puzzlebox accessory sets, with the specific types of shuttles or bobbins, as well as the corresponding underbraider and shirring plates, for these early Singer sewing machines. I don't think I have photos of all of them, but am sharing copies of the books, manuals, & flyers which do have this original information from Singer. I've noticed that the pamphlets & flyers vary, apparently there is a box number, as well as a style number, and some are for more than one type of sewing machine model.
