Comments:
I bought this machine from a nice gent living in Northridge, CA. Don't know how he came to have it. We brought the machine across country to Hudson Valley when we moved a couple of years ago. Interesting piece of trivia: there's a "Samuel Goldwyn Studios" stencil on the back of the jointer.
