My Old Canoe

[lebeaum187]

I am looking to find some information on this canoe. It's my great grandfathers canoe from Ely, Minnesota. It was made in the early in the 1900's. It is 18ft long. 12" deep and 32" wide. The canoe is in good condition/ not excellent but good, needs some work on canvas and wood. On the tag it says W.M. R. Burkard Company from St. Paul, Minnesota. I am interested in selling it but I need more information on it first. I am posting some pictures, your feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Very nice Morris you have. Others will jump in, but do a forum search for BN Morris, and read away!

Hey...can I buy it? I sent you a private message.

Thanks!

If you still have this canoe, could you please send a closeup photo of rails, particularly the inwale, near the center of the canoe. I am conducting research and this would be very helpful.
Thanks,
Howard
