Comments:
I found this saw on Craigslist and purchased it for $75. The saw appears to be complete, including the original instructions/parts manual, wood top, and work light. The manual is dated 1959. Jeff Joslin pointed out that Dewalt updated their manuals about every 2-3 years, so the machine is likely from sometime between 1959-61. The gentlemen I purchased it from didn't know much about her other than he bought her used sometime in the early 1980's.

She runs like a top! The only thing I have done is re-glue the top where it split on the original glue seem and added casters to help maneuver around my shop. I'm going to rewire the motor and switch because the wire sheathing is pretty dry and brittle. I'll probably install new bearings as well.

(Edited True Manufacturer/RD 1-2-2016.
Edited True Mfgr/BAK 1/4/2016: This saw was built under the DeWalt label after Atlas sold their woodworking machinery tooling to Black & Decker. The instruction manual would indicate the transition phase.)
