What kind of vise is this? (post #170831)

Hello everyone,

I recently picked up this vise off of craigslist and there are no markings on it! Does anybody know how to identify this?  The guy who sold it to me was in his 60's and got it from his dad's workshop.  Here are the pics from when I cleaned the rust off.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help. BTW it is 9" wide

P.S. I tried to upload these directly to the forum but I couldn;t get it to work, so here's the imageshack links instead.
