This serial number data is from the Serial Number Reference Book for Metalworking Machinery (1959 edition).
Two record numbers are shown on every Avey Drill when it leaves the factory.
Machine Serial Numbers shipped before 1928 were stamped on the countershaft loose pulley cap on Belted Avey Drills. After 1928, this machine serial number was stamped on a brass name plate attached to each machine.
Base numbers will be found stamped into the top of the lower column dovetail, which carries the table.
