Arnold, the pictures are not coming through.  Could you post them directly?

I really suspect that these were some form of kit.  The flywheels and cylinders are all the same.  There seem to be 2 different bases and some have the cast cross-slide support.  Some have disc crank, others have arm crank.  Some have round rod, others flat steel.  There seems to be a grouping of some features, but each one is a little different.

Seems a bit big for a model, but I don't really know.  They are clearly individually made, but the castings clearly came from somewhere.  Would love to see an ad in a magazine.
