Information on this press?
My guess is that this is a C&P Old Style, am I right?

Nope. Throw-off is wrong. Treadle is wrong for C&P, too. Gordon Franklin New Style?
Throw-off looks like that used on a Peerless press. But as Peerless also produced with Gorden it could also be that combination. Are there any casting or stamped numbers anywhere on the press? Peerless manufactured in Palmyra, NY.
Sorry, the press is about a 7 hr drive from me, so I can’t look at it in person. I’ve listed it in the classifieds on behalf of the owner, and he knows very little about it.
