The Old Town canoe with serial number 114012 is an 18 foot long, CS (common sense or standard) grade Otca model with western red cedar planking, open spruce gunwales, oak seats, decks and thwarts, and equipped with a keel and floor rack. It was built between May 1934 and April 1935. The original exterior paint color was dark green . It was shipped to Lee, Massachusetts on April 27, 1935. A scan of this build record can be found by following the link behind the thumbnail image attached below.
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 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.
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.
