This jointer was spotted on CL, and immediately caught my eye due to the stylish but unique base, and how elegantly the jointer and base match up. The only hint as to manufacturer is that the word Rodgers is spelled out on the blade guard.

I don't find anything like it in the index, but it does match the layout of the jointer and base found in one of the Rodgers flyers which are posted in the illustrations area of the Rodgers manufacturer history page. (See the 3rd illustration, below.)
