Could someone please post for me the build record of Old Town #157576? It should be a 12' square-stern with mahogany rails, probably from the 1950s or so. Thank you.

The Old Town with serial number 157576 is a 12 foot long, AA (or top) grade, Sportboat model with half ribs, a keel, and a floor rack. It was built between April and May, 1952. The original exterior paint color was dark green. It was shipped on May 31st, 1952 to Old Town, Maine. A scan of this build record can be found by following the link at the thumbnail image attached 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.
Feel free to reply here if you have any other questions.
