It seems to be about 1/2 to 3/4 size of my 66. Started cleaning it today, you can peal the scrum(I think smoke residue) off with your fingernail.
Lee231, what a neat find! I love the shape of the machine and the decals are really pretty too! Geeze, I wouldn't have hesitated about taking that machine -- and for free -- how cool is that!

Ok looking at White's badged machines, the White Mason line had a machine called "N & B Special." The letter before the "Special" on your machine could be a 'B' from the picture? Of course, you can tell better by looking at the machine? The Mason line that White made also had a 'Summer's Special,' and a 'Tom's Special.'
White also had a 'Sanders Special,' and a 'Rotary Special.'
