Comments:
Machine was my father's many years ago. It was originally owned by a company that made displays for trade shows. My father bought it in 1948 or 49 and used it for making kitchen cabinets for several years. He says this saw was a real work-horse and could run all day with no problem. Note the low serial number. It has not been used in at least 50 years. Mechanism condition is excellent, but motor is disassembled and will need rewiring and rebuilding. I would like to give this to someone who will appreciate it and hopefully get it going as I am moving soon and will not be taking this with me. Please "Save the Saw".
Update - a few months ago, before I moved, I gave this to a local carpenter who rebuilds old saws. I think it has a good new home.

Comments: From the serial number, this must be an early 30-A
