Comments:

I bought this and one other Beach Scroll saw from Ed Hobbs. This is Henry Beach's first model scroll saw. There are patents on this one and the other saw. I have viewed both patents when the link was up on the mothership.
They are not intact, but mostly there. I will have to get the patent and try to find one other example so i can make patterns to duplicate the missing items. I now have 4 Beach machines.
