Comments:
Purchased from a pattern shop in Allentown, PA-they had it since the 50's and told me they bought it from an educational institution in Allentown. It has a LF Grammes and Sons tag on it from Allentow, PA from the machinery dealer I'm assuming. It seems quite possible we're only the 3rd owner of this jointer-and the first owners outside of Allentown.

Style and serial number suggest it's a 1905-09 model
