Finally took some pics of this saw. Notice, although kind of tough to
make it out, the word Lakeside is in cursive script. Unfortunately, I
cannot make out anything else. I also have no way of knowing if the
miter box originally came with the saw. I don't set any manufacturer
markings on the miter box.

As a further data point for comparison, here is a pic of a Disston No. 4
that I have. Although, this saw is obviously different. I'm pretty sure
this one is quite a bit older.

Finally, as a reference to the saw of Roy's, here are some pics of my
Disston D8 panel saw. It looks very similar.

Anyway, hope this helps to clear up the mystery.
