The 66 class was a valuable machine in the Singer lineup at the turn of the 20th century, made in America from 1902 thru 1956 with several modifications.
It featured a full size machine head, bobbin winder attached to the belt guard, top loading bobbin with oscillating hook system. The bobbin case stays in the machine except for cleaning and oiling. It had a round knob to regulate the stitch length. Earlier models had no reverse and did not have numbers on the tension dial.
* The first series 66-1 were in a treadle stand (66-3 was a hand crank); it had ornamentation (referred to as green eye) and was made between 1902 and 1906. Early models had a back mount presser foot.
* The 66-1 red eye was made between 1906 and 1923 /1924.
* The 66-4 started production in 1923-1924. The back mount presser foot was changed to the standard side mount.
* The 66-6 started production in 1921 with various modifications, it was originally offered as a treadle and soon as an electric model.
It may be said the number 66 was chosen because at that time the main office of Singer was located on 66 Lake Street in Chicago, IL .
