This tool and others are being posted for Matt Eatbrooks who is the Carpentry/Paint Shop Manager at Mount Allison University in Sackville, New Brunswick.

"The planer was bought new between 1910 and 1923 and has been in this shop ever since. It was still in use daily up until last week.
It was both bought new 1910 and 1923 from the St. John branch of the A. R. Williams Machinery Co.
It has a 7” depth x 24” width capacity. It has two separate electric motors, one 10HP for the cutterhead and one 5HP for the feedrolls.
I lost the battle on the tools (Oliver table saw, Goldie & McCulloch band saw and Cananian Machinery planer). They were picked up yesterday by a scrap dealer. I could not buy them personally and they even went so far as to disassemble the tools and sell the parts to different scrap dealers so they could not be made operational."
