Sitting at my local brewery now and unfortunately they don't serve apple pie.

Eww

The one I posted is still in it's original home a beutiful old hardware store still packed with new old stock. There are some nice vises and machine tools on the upper floors as well but I didn't grab pictures. Maybe next time once I feel more comfortable.

I walked past this beauty a few times today before I noticed it. The owner was open to selling it but didn't want to put a number on it any thoughts?

No honestly I always get a kick out of finding something that isn't already posted. Rare as it is. I just jumped on the fact that Yankee was listed and there was no no.992. I knew Yankee wasn't the actual manufacturer but I scrolled rite past North Brothers to Yankee because that's what I call...

Oops I was a bit late.

Looks like Goodell and Pratt to me.

I picked up the swivel base for one of these at the field of tools event today in NY. I have had the vise for a while now.

Micah Thank you and thank you for the information. I am interpreting the information from the catalog a bit different. The logo shown in the illustration of the 19 is a different style but so is the description of the jaw style I belive my jaw faces are an older style there are no screws. The...

I scored this pretty clean Prentiss 19 over the weekend rite around the corner from my house. No major damage no cracks or missing parts. The swivel jaw and pin had been painted over and I assume not moved in many years. It didn't take much to get them moving though. I removed the swivel base...

Columbian 603 stats are on the spreadsheet but no link to a post. This one has smooth jaws.
