Looking for information for Old Town Canoe #87906

The Old Town canoe with serial number 87906 is an 11 foot long, AA (or top) grade, special model with open mahogany gunwales, mahogany decks, mahogany thwarts, mahogany seats, a keel, and outside stems. It was built between May and July, 1925. The original exterior paint color was dark green. It shipped on July 14th, 1925 to New York City. 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. 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 your canoe. Feel free to reply here if you have any other questions.

Thank you for the quick response!!!!

Can I reduce the size of the thumbnail attachment, so I can print the build sheet on an 8 1/2x11 sheet of paper?
