Comments:
This pillar drill has been in our family of Church Organ Builders for many years. I think the No 22 may be the type of machine rather than the serial number. It also has a plate on its other side that indicates the seller in England i.e. 'Brown Brothers, Great Eastern St, 249628 & 30'. It still moves the way that it always has! I hope this slightly more travelled machine is a welcome addition to your catalogue.

Comments: This is the plaque Brown Brothers put on for retail in England, I have yet to find out what the numbers '249628 & 30' relate to.
