Hi!
Old Town 166953 is a 17 foot Otca model, finished between December 1957 and May 1958. It has a keel and was painted light gray, then shipped to Camp Hawthorne in Raymond, Maine, on May 29, 1958.
The scan of this record is attached below-- click on it to get a larger image. This scan and several hundred thousand others 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 renew your membership to the WCHA so that services like this can continue. See http://www.wcha.org/wcha/ to learn more about the WCHA and http://www.wcha.org/join.php to renew.
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.
I'll Google Camp Hawthorne and add info if I find any.
