Need info on vintage Kenmore

Bought this little Kenmore yesterday, Model 159.262, Ser. # 2099. It has a shuttle bobbin system. I figured out how to wind the bobbin and thread the machine and it works really well. Straight stitch only. Can't find any info online. Can someone help me with any info on this cutie?[ATTACH=CONFIG]329161[/ATTACH]

There is a vintage Kenmore Yahoo group that is great! I belong as I have a couple of vintage Kenmores to get into working order.

Try sewusa.com. They have pics of most of the models and manuals you can buy for all of them. I went there yesterday to find out what model Dressmaker I have.
