Not directly, but you could as on the Yahoo group, Wefixit: they have a huge collective knoledge base and access to all sorts of things. It might take a while to filter back to you...
Are you sure "Seamstress" is the brand, and not a model designation? I'm not finding anything at all. Sorry,
Beverly
thanks for looking beverly model of the machine is 1320F and seamstress was a badge stuck on the side there are no other names on the machine.

Since it's a slow and really nasty, stormy day with nothing good on TV and I'm in an "I don't wanna do nuthin" mood I have been searching the web for your machine. From what I can tell the official brand name of your machine is Viscount 1320F. It's apparently a heavy duty straight stitch and zig-zag model; probably where the 'seamstress' part comes in, perhaps made for heavy use. It seems to have been made in Japan but imported and sold through the Singer Manufacturing Company in England for a brief period. I couldn't find any exact dates but from what I surmised after reading what I could find this was done for only a few years before WWll. There is now a UK company that sells Viscount knitting and sewing machines. I couldn't find any historical connection between the Singer Company and the present Viscount company. I can't tell where they now manufacture, UK or Japan. Some of the newer machines are tagged with "Indonesia".
You might try contacting the Viscount Company, now known as the Silver Viscount Company and see if they could possibly help you out. There is an address, email and phone numbers for contacts listed on their site.

Send me a photo of the front of the machine of list and perhaps I have something in my box of old manuals compatible. Small chance but worth the shot
Richard, I used a seamstress machine for years. It was a workhorse and I am sorry I got rid of it. I can't help you with a book or anything, but you might have a really good machine there.
