I have to say Gene Kelly came to mind (An American in Paris)
This isn't Paris is it?
Hendeyman will be along shortly, I'm sure. He will likely find this lathe "interesting."

Actual serial will be stamped into machined cast iron in between two front ways adjacent the pair of screws holding up the right hand lead screw bracket. 23D1815 is not a Hendey serial - which will be a simple numeric string of 4 or 5 numbers
Here is a whole bunch of them

Not a Hendey? - QC gear box is all wrong
Here is what Hendey QC gear boxes look like
Here is the "manual" - thanks to Greg Menke for hosting this for me

Denis,
Since the name Hendey is not in the title of your thread and it is probably too late to change it. I would suggest you contact Hendeyman directly since he has not replied and he may not have noticed it.
You can see what he says about visiting the forum only a few time week .
“I must admit that I usually visit the PM only a few times a week and confine most of my information to the history of a
particular machine.”
“Operator's Manual, the Endless Flat Belt or any other items foryour lathe, contact me directly at: [email protected]”
From post # 19 of this thread .

Have a care to keep it insulated from the Earth.
Hendey's have an affinity for Iron. As sustenance. To build and maintain strong bones.
If your one was not properly weaned, it's thirst may awaken.
Magnetic compasses all over France could go inaccurate.
