Although not marked, the leg and foot profiles are hallmarks of Goodspeed design. Found in a pattern shop in Saco Maine. The headstock mounts to a large one piece angle bracket casting supported on one end by a set of standard lathe legs and on the other by a building's post or wall. The spindle nose is reverse threaded Possibly suggesting the lathe was designed to be at the turners right. 37 ¼ inches center to floor.
