I see a 18" lathe chuck on ebay. I see a cross bar bolted to the main body crossing the center hole. Is this for lifting it somehow? I do not think a 18" chuck is going to be hand placed onto the spindle I am sure it weighs a few hundred pounds.

Bar is for lifting, yes. Uses the Tee-slots.
Otherwise, it MIGHT be an SCA, but I do not think so. Much skimpier from the backside photo.
Search eBay on SCA lathe chuck and compare markings and back appearance. SCA was bought by a distributor quite some time ago, that firm now sells Bison/Toolmex, so it used or NOS, no longer being made, new.
My two - smaller ones about 7+" inch, are heavier built and marked with maker, model, serial number.
Decent looking condition, but this one is NOT all that heavy. Rather TOO lightly built for its size in my view.
See what Small Tools has in inventory. They weren't exactly giving them away as door prizes, but I was very pleased with the value for NOS SCA because NEW, still in preservatives they most assuredly were.
