It does look like a Elgin. A very sad one, but fixable.

Yeah I think it's an Elgin Wonder B. Looks to be all there. My first Trade fair in Granbury. I bought a part off an Elgin Wonder B for $5. I told the guy I would go get my wrenches to take the part off. He was from Alabama and he said no you won't You have to take the whole head or you can't have the part. I'm not hauling this thing back to Alabama. So I hauled the head back to East Texas.
