Welcome, my guess is that you are seeking the Old Town canoe with serial number 141825. This is a 17 foot long, AA (or top) grade, HW (Heavy Water) model with red Western cedar planking, open ash gunwales, ash decks, ash thwarts, ash seats, a keel, and a floor rack. (The AA grade canoes usually had mahogany trim but this was not available during the war.) It was built between March and July, 1945. The original exterior paint color was dark green with a G. S. (Guide's Special) green bottom. This custom order was shipped on August 28th, 1945 to the H. C. Lovell & Company in Stratford, Connecticut. A scan of this build record can be found by following the link at the attached thumbnail image below.
This scan and several hundred thousand more were created with substantial grants from the Wooden Canoe Heritage Association (WCHA) and others as you probably know well. A description of the project to preserve these records is available at
http://www.wcha.org/catalogs/old-town/records/ if you want more details. I hope that you will donate, join or renew your membership to the WCHA so that services like this can continue. See

The Olsen Marine Company in Stratford, Connecticut also ordered many canoes during this period. Dave is correct that usually it is not possible to search for details like this. However, the factory started typing the destination addresses on these records in the early 1930s. This can work with an optical character recognition (OCR) process to make them somewhat searchable in a few situations like this. This was very helpful when looking for the Deliverance canoes as described at
