Hi Steve,
Carlton 15222 is a 17 foot regular-grade Carleton model canoe completed June-July 1920. It has red Western cedar planking, spruce gunwales (possibly closed), and maple decks/thwarts/seat frames and a keel. It was originally dark green. It was shipped to Iver Johnson's in Boston, MA, on January 28, 1921.

It was built between June, 1920 and April, 1921. The original exterior paint color was bright red. It was shipped on April 27th, 1921 to Pike, New Hampshire. A scan showing this build record can be found by following the link at the attached thumbnail image below.

It is also possible that you could have another number or manufacturer if this description don't match the canoe. Feel free to reply here if you have any other questions.
