this looks just familar enough that I know I ought to recognize it, but I've
been pondering it for several months and I still don't know - I'm sure that
a bunch of you folks will immediately recognize it. (note there is a .txt
file also, with dimensions - the key dimension is that it holds a 1 3/4 inch
shaft/rod/tube/whatever)
any clues?

Sure enough, and probably from the Art Deco era at that.

Please log in for more thread options I used to have a photo enlarger with a base that looked like that when I was
highschool.
I don't remember the curved back but it was about the same size with the
same deco ribbing.

Yes, I remember one just like it. Already old 20+ years ago... Think it
was a dark brown finish, but the ribs were the same as well as the
diameter of the tube.
