That looks to be a 1940's Automatic. If you see the movie, it says, "AUTOMATIC" on the side is that a model name? |

A google search of 'Automatic brand fork truck' produced a link but it was not accessible. They were a division of Eaton, Yale and Towne Inc. Some research might find something more. |
