Your canoe is a 17 foot AA grade (top grade) Carleton with western cedar planking, open Mahogany gunwales, Mahogany decks, thwarts and seats. It was equipped with half ribs, a keel and outside stems. It was painted Orange with a one inch black stripe - and I don't know how that stripe ended. It was built in 1925 26 and sold to a man in Valley Park, MO.
This scan and several hundred thousand others were created with substantial grants from the Wooden Canoe Heritage Association (WCHA) and others. A description of the project to preserve these records is available at http://www.wcha.org/ot_records/ if you want more details. I hope that you will join or renew your membership to the WCHA so that services like this can continue. See http://www.wcha.org/about-the-wcha/ to learn more about the WCHA and http://store.wcha.org/WCHA-New-Membership.html to join.
It is also possible that you could have another number or manufacturer if this description doesn't match your canoe.
Feel free to reply here if you have any other questions.
