Simmon Bros. Complete Enlarger circa 1936 (Pre-Omega)

[mckay3d]

I am in the process of restoring a Simmon Brothers Complete enlarger from about 1936. This was the first enlarger the Simmon Bros. offered and was produced before the Omega branded enlargers. This was contained in a leatherette covered wooden "suitcase" and was made to work with 35mm or 2 1/4" negatives. I have found a couple of illustrations on the web but would really like an original manual (or copy), or any literature. I'll post some pictures later. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks... mckay3d

There's some information about this model on the KHB website, listed under "Omega Museum":
