“N” Series,
Catalog No. 114-B,
I spoke to Ted at Leblond, he was able to locate the paperwork for my machine but was unable to identify it totally. According to the build sheet, it shipped 12/28/1936, was sold to a textile co. in Greenville SC. the tailstock was a #10; the head was a #7, the saddle a #2. Ted did not know the meaning of these numbers. The only thing it specified about the machine was that it was a single lever machine. Ted also expressed the rareness of a 15" machine. He said that maybe it was a smaller head mounted on a riser to obtain the 15 swing. I just went and looked at the head and tailstock. There are no risers on either. All the parts that I've managed to remove and clean up have had a 15-xxxx part number, so I'm confident it is a 15" machine.
