Comments:
Saw a crummy picture on local CL, which led me to a shop specializing in church and statuary testoration. They were trying to free up some space. No one there remembered ever seeing it run, and given the lack of guards OSHA probably wouldn't have allowed it. It was rewired with a NEMA L6-20R plug at some point, but the motor wiring is original.
