We bought the follow rest from a dealer selling it as a 15" LeBlond, but it is about 3/4" too short for our lathe. We think it is for a LeBond 13" Regal based on size and serial number stamped on it (2B-1014) which is for a 13" Regal. The photos show it mounted on our 15" which has the same 3/8"-16, 3" center mounting holes on the tailstock side of the carriage as the LeBlond 13". Note two of the photos show a regular bolt on top finger, this was replaced with a correct square head extended point set screw as shown in the other photos.

We also have this listed on eBay

could you do me a favor and measure the height from the bolt holes to the center of the rest and the distance between the bolt holes? thanks
 
See the enclosed photos:
centerline of mounting holes to finger center ~6"
centerline between mounting holes best at 3", but it would fit on wider spacing.
offset from inside mounting face (headstock side) to centerline of fingers ~2.5"
