Looks to be a very nice high speed precision lathe similar to hardinge lathe.

If in good condition this would be a great price!

Hadn’t heard of Herbert before so I looked it up on Tony’s site. Wow, if you like old factory photographs from the 1920’s and 30’s have a look at these…

It's a Holbrook, looks like a great little lathe @ about 2000 pounds.
