- Thread starter Gnimski
- Start date
Welcome, the Old Town with serial number 166323 is a 16 foot long, CS (Common Sense or middle) grade, Guide model canoe with a keel. It was built between September and November, 1957. The original exterior paint color was G. S. (Guide's Special) green. It shipped on November 29th, 1957 to Winchester, Massachusetts. The back side of the card indicates that it may have moved to Wolfeboro, New Hampshire by May 4th, 1976 when there was a previous request for a copy of the build record. Scans of both sides of this build record can be found below.
These scans were created with substantial grants from the Wooden Canoe Heritage Association (WCHA) and others. Additional information about 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 https://www.woodencanoe.org/about to learn more about the WCHA and https://www.woodencanoe.org/shop to donate, join, or renew.
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.
