Sure. I have two: they are both Stromberg-Carlson Dynamotor 42486, 12V 
16.8 amps input, 680 VDC at 210 mA output, MPF-4-45. 

These were made by Webster Products

They have the US Navy anchor stamp on them. Neither one have the 
end-bells on them, so I am going to have to make some new ones for them 
before I use them. They have never been used.

These were part of a load of "junque" I got from our University's EE 
department when they were cleaning a bunch of that out.

They were obviously for some sort of military, U.S. Navy, transmitter, but I 
have no idea which one.

Maybe WA5CAB might know.

I did a search on eBay for dynamotors too, and found two 12V jobs which 
output 500 VDC at 200 mA.

I also found two 6V input jobs which output 600 VDC at 200 mA. I suppose 
you could connect the inputs in series and the outputs in parallel...
