Marshall & "Whoever" appears to be the machinery dealer. The change gear label say Von Wyck Machine Tool Co., Cincinnati, OH.

Von Wyck Lathe

Von Wyck lathe U.S.A. Classic 15-inch engine lathe manufactured cira 1895 to 1914

www.lathes.co.uk

The company appears to have gone by that name from 1903-1914.

Very old flat belt, change gear lathe. Low value (less than $1000, perhaps much less) if you can find someone interested.

I believe it’s “Marshall & Huschart”

I'd say $300 to $400 bucks a piece. Very old lathes in need of refurbishment are interesting
to a small number of buyers. That assumes they have all their parts and don't have any
major damage.
