I been naughty too. Poking through CL this morning I found this: {

It's a Damascus in a parlor cabinet. The cabinet looks a lot like the one my Franklin 1911 is in. The machine has a lot of Davis characteristics but also some W&W too.
So I'm wondering; is this a Sears sold machine, and was it made by Davis? If not Davis, who?
