I found this on Craigslist advertised in a package deal with a Unisaw, Delta 1460 lathe and a Delta Homecraft LD shaper, all for $600 OBO. I emailed the seller and offered him $200 for the band saw as I already owned all the others. Of course, I already owned a 1939 band saw too but this one is in much better condition and on a cast iron stand. I would have purchased the other machinery as well had I had any room left in my shop. I quickly posted the 1939 band saw to CL and sold it by the end of the day for $200. Anyway, the machines belonged to the sellers grandfather who'd passed about 10 years prior. Updated to add photos of mild restoration, preserving the original paint.
