e. Hoffman lathe (circa 1916...) just sold for 2K?

I posted this in ON auction thread - it sold for same $$$ as Mayford super 7 in pristine condition

I inspected the lathe, its 12 x 36 CMC Canadian Machine Corporation lathe.
 
Lathe was dirty with some bead wear (obviously) and had worn half nuts or lead screw (as per owner). I bid on it for my dad up to about 600-700 max
