Comments:
Found on Craigslist from the second owner, a fireman was the first, second owner had it only a couple of years. Nameplate on frame shows a postal zone, zip-codes started in '63 (photo #4). All complete and in beautiful condition, did a thorough surface cleaning. Old Dewalt sales brochures say that the columns were "electro-plated" to resist rust, so I used cream polish on a rag to clean it. Looks like chromed to me, see second photo.
