Hi. I’m looking for information on these two lathes. I have scoured Vintage Machinery and the internet to no avail. I can’t upload photos any longer.

Machines that old didn't have manuals. The closest you'll find are pages from catalogs, so I'd start there. What information do you need?

In regards to the pictures. I find it easiest to do it from a desk top PC. Save them somewhere like on on your desktop, then when you go to post a photo, select "from computer" and pick which one to load. Can't help with a smartphone. I'm too young and hip for those things.

Here is a rather plain (no "riser blocks") 24" Le Blond from those days. (teens or earlier)

(thanks to my desktop PC)

Have the 1911 catalog scanned if you would like to have that via email, Private Message me an address - but here again - hardly something to "look at" on a "phone". Its not quite 7Mb
