Welcome, the Old Town canoe with serial number 125062 is a 17 foot long, CS (Common Sense or middle) grade, HW model with open spruce gunwales, ash decks, ash thwarts, ash seats, a keel, a floor rack, and sponsons. It was built between May, 1938 and January, 1939. The original exterior paint color was dark green with a white hair line stripe or H. L. S. initials. It shipped on April 6th, 1939 to Newark, New Jersey. A scan showing this build record can be found below.
This scan and several hundred thousand more 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/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

It is also possible that you could have another number or manufacturer if this description doesn't match the canoe. Please post a picture if the original design is still showing. Feel free to reply here if you have any other questions.
