I've had the opportunity to look over this lathe in person, and it is a classic machine with great lines in very good condition. The lathe is reported to be accompanied by a full set of change gears, the original bill of sale, a catalog and price list and a repairs manual.

The machine is owned by RIMCO (Robert Ivens Machinery Company) of Milwaukee WI, and permission was given to post the machine here by RIMCO's new owner Matthew Scannella. I had asked to be allowed to post the machine here because there were not any Barnes foot-powered engine lathes listed on VM as of this date. If I learn more on the back story of where this machine came from, I'll update this listing.
