Good Evening, great topic...I have had a Klepper folding kayak frame in the living room for about 10 yrs. now, it is a 1955 Klepper T9, not absolutely sure on year, but is a T9. Paddled it a bit, removed the hull/skin and hung it up. Was told it was an Olympic kayak champions kayak from @ 1955/56. But...now it will have an early original Peterborough canoe for company. Recently purchased it and should have it cleaned up and ready to hang soon. Photos of the Klepper T9
