Outstanding old engine, it looks to be
in great condition.
It is the only one of its kind I have seen
and it has a name plate !
Appreciate the post & photos!
This Company was established in 1903 and
was taken over by Thomas & Grant in late 1908.
This is a 1903 article From Iron World Magazine.

Dick and Richard,
Guess I will need to post some pictures of the Fairbanks-Grant launch that I have that needs an engine. My guess is that each are lone survivors. For now I am enjoying my stay at Mystic. It's been a great and well rounded show with inbosrds, outboards,steam and models.
