The Old Town canoe with serial number 123391 is an 18 foot long, CS (common sense or middle) grade, HW (heavy water) model with open spruce gunwales and a keel. It was built between October, 1937 and July, 1938. The original exterior paint color was dark green. It shipped on June 7th, 1939 to Keene, New Hampshire.
A scan showing this build record can be found by following the link at the thumbnail image attached below. 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 the canoe. Feel free to reply here if you have any other questions.
