Singer 9W Survey Results (2498 words)
The class 9W machine was produced in at least four models – the 9W1, 9W2, 9W7, and 9W8.
It is tempting to theorize that the 9W7 was the first model, based on its use of the WandW 9 type bobbin, the serial numbers reported, and the manual dating; however, that is not consistent with Singer numbering for model variants or with the number sequence of the bobbin cases.
If the 9W was indeed manufactured into 1924, that is just under 7,000 machines per year on average, or less than ¼ of 1% of the reported 2 ½ million machines sold by Singer in 1913 (Sincere).
