Comments:

A friend's machine. Lots of babbitt bearing shafts in base where the power transmission for the feed rollers is located. Guards are removed for clarity. One feeds in square stock and out comes round stock. Company is still in business today and sell some of the used machines. They can be seen at: www.hawkermfg.com. This particular specimen needs work.
