OP - December 10,2016. Obtained from local C'list. PO remembered his Daddy using it 40+ years ago. Was described in C'list as 'Old Heavy table saw'- I could tell it was a glider printer's saw, but it did not look like a Hammond bench model - but I went anyway. The owner had no idea what a printer's saw was. The drawer that was obviously in the saw originally has been long gone, as is the belt guard. Otherwise, the 1/2 HP motor - no tag information yet, but looks like a Westinghouse - and all other parts seem to be accounted for, surprisingly the worklight as well!
The workpiece 'finger' and scale are marked in picas, so clearly a printer's saw.

I cannot find information on Nolan saws other than on this site - this confirms suspicions that the other saws listed here are printer's saws.

Hope to clean this one up and see how it compares to my Hammond Mercury saw.
