Comments:

This unit appears to be complete and is in excellent condition. I can't believe how smooth an quiet it is. It has the direct drive setup with the 2-speed motor.

Motor serial number 565091.

This unit first appears in a 1939 catalog found here on the site. I haven't figured out when they stopped production.

The serial number doesn't fit any of the formulas in the Walker Turner Serial Numbers document, but based on what I see there, I think it's safe to say it was introduced in 1939.
