Found on EBay listed as a drum sander. Seller was not a woodworker and mislisted it. Wound up getting it for $30. When it arrived I was surprised that every part was there and in good shape. I completely took it apart, replaced the bearings, wire brushed all the metal pieces, and painted. The table top was scraped with a razor blade, rubbed down with WD40 and a Scotch Brite pad, and then I went to work with elbow grease and 1500 grit paper. The original blanchard grindings are fully visible and the top has a nice mirror finish again. Next step is a motor and some cutters. Should make a nice station for light shaping work.
