Here we go. It was hiding out in the 1916 B&S Catalog of Machinery and Tools.
Pretty sure I have seen that tailstock or one like it on Ebay.
The top view photo confirms identification. Does yours have the
#9 B&S taper?

That's a cute little head! I've never seen one like that. Are you missing any plates?
I have what may be the tail stock for it. May wish to measure what the center height is though. I purchased two pieces together from ebay a little bit ago, and the tail stock was one of them. I wouldn't mind a buy, sell or trade either way to get them together. I posted about it here if you care to have a look:

Unless I missed it there were three plates showing in the ad, so unless they are standard bore and BC you'll have to make them I guess. Such a cute li'l bugger would be worth the effort too.
I bought a different direct indexing head a while ago and it has 60 degree notches in the periphery instead of holes, so it should be easy to make plates for. I haven't found out what plates were available originally though, and you have the same problem I think.
Maybe you can find data on it though.
Yessir, it does have a #9 B&S Taper
Me either, but for $60 I wasnt going to just let this one slip by! Sadly the only plate is the one that was on it..
