Comments:

From my grandfathers shop. He stopped working at 86 when he fell and broke his hip in 1956. My uncle and he were partners. My uncle used it very little after that. In 1987 I purchased it at my uncles estate auction. I have stored it until now and have just finished restoration.
After comments from "The Shop" on OWWM I believe this is a old Canadan machine that Cowan & Co. rebuilt.
Because my grandfathers shop burnt down around 1946 I am guessing this is a replacement joiner for the new shop.
