Last Brunswick Ivory ball lathe

[mr3cushion]

Hello all; I thoght I'd share these photos a friend of mine in California sent me of this BRAND NEW never been used, Brunswick Ivory ball lathe. It was owned by the last on staff Brunswick mechanic in CA., Gus Adams.









What a remarkable machine that was used for over 60 years to turn ivory balls down when they got out of round!

Enjoy;

Hi Bob; How are you doing?, hope all is fine. The placard says "Brunswick Ivory Ball lathe circa 1909".
