Listed in the 1952 PK-52 Atlas Power King catalog, page 4. This little guy is used by my step dad for his projects.

I didn't clean it up because I didn't think that he would take kindly to having his sawdust re-arranged.

The jointer sits atop a jointer stand, but I don't think it's the one shown in the catalog.

The motor is a Leland-Faraday, so it's not the original, the switch is an obvious modification, and the blade guard is newer, but the jointer still works great.
