The Old Town canoe with serial number 1064845 is a 16 foot long, CS (Common Sense) grade, Yankee model with red western cedar planking, open spruce gunwales, a keel, and a floor rack. It was built between June and July, 1930. The original exterior paint color was dark green. It was shipped on July 8th, 1930 to Syracuse, New York. 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/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.
