It's a generic, unbranded machine from the 1920's. It looks really nice. If you like it, buy it. I'd try to talk them down as low as you can get it, because resale will be hard.

Thanks - I make an offer but I'm flat out of room period. :(

It does appear to have a very nice cabinet - if he drops the price I may risk life and limb and make an offer........

This is a much nicer cabinet than you usually see in the off-brand machines.

I agree - except for that missing door pull it looks sweet. I will definitely lurk on this listing. If I should acquire it I have no clue how I would sneak it in the house - they are kind of hard to disguise... :lol:
