    A small bit of googling brings up this page

    http://archive.commercialmotor.com/article/2nd-september-1949/44/new-equipment-at-olympia



    A compact portable arc-welding transformer, weighing 175 lb. complete, is shown by the Arc Manufacturing Co., Ltd., Actarc Works, Goldhawk Road, London, W.I2. This unit, for repair and light welding work, has a dual range of 15-200 amps. and an open circuit of 90-100 volts for sheet metal, and 45-50 volts for plate welding. It can be used in the garage for wing repairs or chassis fractures. The overall ,size of the transformer is 12 ins. by 16 ins. by 19 ins.

    Maybe you can find out whether the company is still in existence?

    Thanks for that, I appreciate it. Ill have a look on google see if there is anything. Would you think the welder is worth anything?
