107597 was assigned to an 18' Otca in AA grade with 20" mahogany decks, rails, seats & thwarts. It was built in 1930-31 and painted Maroon, but looks like it wasn't shipped til 1934. Before shipping, it was painted with 1/2" black stripe edged in gold with Greek ends like design 37. Build record attached.

Scans of approximately 210,000 records were created with substantial grants from the Wooden Canoe Heritage Association (WCHA) and others. Additional information about the project to preserve these records is available at http://www.wcha.org/catalogs/old-town/records/ if you want more details. Please join WCHA or make a tax deductable contribution 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.html to join. If you are already a WCHA member, THANK YOU!

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.
