Default Who has the oldest, but working, machine?

My compressor, which works, was made in 1951. Does anyone have
anything made earlier, that is in working condition?

The shop I used to work at had a Seneca Falls lathe like advertised on the
Wendy's tables. Last time I visited, within the last year or so, it was
still in use.
It looked like this:

Except the treadle was replaced with a motor.

I ran it several times, it was a very good running lathe.
