Very likely a Doll 354/?. I would need to see more pictures to identify the machine.

Brand should be DOLL Model 354/1-5. Don't know the size
/1 the Flywheel has 70 mm and /5 has 110 mm - the others are
between. Value from 80 to 700 depends on size and state...

Bidding is up to $15.99 with 4 days to go. It looks like a much larger project than I want, but many thanks for those who helped identify!

If the boiler height is 110 mm, the boiler diameter is 63 mm and the flywheel diameter is 70 mm, then it is a Doll 354/1.

If the boiler height is 130 mm, the boiler diameter is 70 mm and the flywheel diameter is 80 mm, then it is a Doll 354/2.
