Not seen one before, although I believe DeArmond made some highly respected guitars.
I like its retro look. If it sounds as good as it looks you have got a winner.

Welcome! That's a cool looking amp, but I've never heard of them either. You can find some great hidden treasures on Criagslist, that's for sure!

I own one of their guitars, an M-75. This isn't my one, but the same model and colour You've made me investigate and I didn't realise they have become rare. The gold tone pups are well regarded too. I think I'll start treating it a little better! I'm feeling somewhat guilty that I'm using it for slide! At least it's a dropped tuning and does mean less finger gunk on the frets i183.photobucket.com/albums/x167/virtualjazzbo/DeArmond%20M75/frontfull.jpgIn my looking around I can't find anything about this particular amp. The logo looks very 'Fender' in style - Dearmond was owned by Fender from 1996 - but you're probably looking at something much earlier given the lack of info. I did find some 1960's / 70's amps produced by Dearmond, but not the same model, and what you have looks in very good condition to be that old. From what I've read, those were Tweed Deluxe or Champ like. Do you have any other info? Tubes? Wattage? A photo of the back? Keen to hear what it sounds like
