Description:
This listing is for a professional reproduction of the 56-page “Sewing Skills Reference Book,” on CD in PDF format.
This 63-year old manual, which includes 6 sewing lessons, was printed and published by the Singer Company Educational Department. As stated by Singer, it is a “Sewing Skills Course for women who already sew as well as for women who are eager to learn to sew.”
The manual teaches the care and operation of Singer sewing machines. Although the manual does not refer to any particular machine model, it shows operation of a Singer 15-95 model.
This is NOT a standard "Xerox" copy of the book. This manual was precisely scanned using a professional high-resolution scanner, to prepare an exact duplicate of the original Sewing Skills manual on a CD, in PDF format.
This 56-page manual on CD is complete with all the original text, diagrams, tables, and photos. It is super clean with no stains or any other imperfections!
This manual on CD is in easy to use PDF format. All the pages (including the color pages) and diagrams are readable on your computer monitor screen and are also easily printable.
You will be able to view and read page by page on your monitor screen, print any single page, or print the entire manual, if you so desire.
Almost all computer users have a PDF reader. However, if you need a PDF reader, you can download a free
Adobe Reader
from the following link: get.adobe.com/reader/
If you ever decide to print the entire manual, including the 2 cover pages, it will most likely look exactly like the original manual.
We printed the entire manual from this CD
on 28 Lb heavy-weight brilliant-white paper,
and the resulting manual is almost identical
to our original manual.
The printed manual is super clean with no
stains or any imperfections.
In fact, if we didn't tell you,
you could not tell the difference
between this manual, printed from the CD,
and the original manual!
This 56-page Sewing Skills manual on CD is complete and very clean with no "black dots," smudges, stains, or any other imperfections. It includes many color pages. No pages are missing, dirty, or damaged.
The manual will teach you how to use and care for your Singer sewing machine. It also teaches how to use most of the standard Singer accessories that come with the Singer machines. It was used for many years as the “sewing reference book” for women who sew and women who learn how to sew. The manual includes 6 sewing lessons with some 80 different sewing subjects, such as “forming a proper stitch,” “regulating length and width,” “using a binder,” and dozens of other subjects...

IMPORTANT NOTE
eBay 5-Star Rating System
:
Due to eBay's new Star rating system and it's lack of explanation and clarity, I would like to try to give you an insight as to how it affects our business. You would think that a 4 star rating would be good as eBay says. Not So! Anything less than a 5 star rating on all categories might as well be a Negative feedback score. If you are not completely satisfied with any transaction and believe it to be our fault, your fault or nobodies fault, contact us and we will take care of the problem.

1. We inventory and have in stock every item that we list for sale.

5. We strive to achieve 100% customer satisfaction.
