It looks like a “SOS” stand made in New York in the 50’s. Many were used in the Signal Corp film units. The compound needs a lot of work. Someone that is handy with tools could get in functional for little money provided they could find a pin registered camera. Sherman

This was very common in the 70's/80s as there were books that had instructions and lists of parts to do it. It was supposed to be cheaper than buying one but it must had been one hell of a hassle.

I am posting on behalf of an indie cinema in Seattle, that is trying to identify the exact model of an animation stand they've had in the back room for years. They are interested in getting to a new good home, but first need a little more information on exactly what it is. Pictures can be found in this Dropbox folder: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/5dpzryfh9apsm64/AADZEhc71wj3YR35c0fnEa2ka?dl=0 Dimensions are about 60" wide, 40" deep, 30" high at table and 72" high at the arm. Any pointers are much appreciated!
