Trying to place a model number for this machine.

Admin Note: This entry was updated to add machine specifications. This 15" DP would likely date to the 1936 or 1937 catalog years. This version of their 900 series DP was introduced in 1936, at which time it came furnished with the bench mount style base as seen in these photos. In 1937 that base was still the standard issue, but they introduced a "Special Round Base" which was optional(and cost $7 more). By the 1938 catalog the round base was standard. The foot feed unit on this DP appears to be an owner modification (but a clever one). I'm not aware of any WT factory setup which looked like this. The original date of upload for this photo entry was Jan. 13, 2008. The date of editing was Feb 1, 2016. Admin:DG
