Excellent! That's great Richard.
Do you have a year on that publication? I wish we had a little better view of the ignitor and "waterproof sparker-box", but you can't ask for everything.
Look at that twin...totally separate pumps and ignitors front and back.
Thanks again, Blair. |

After looking for a clearer photo of the igniter and cross checking my info the Fulton Engine ad above is actually 1909. The engines came on the market in 1904 Mfgrd by "The Art Machine Company" in Baltimore, Md with a sales office in New York.In late 1908 Fulton bought the Company and moved it to Erie,Penn. This may help in further research of this engine.
May 1908 The Art Machine Company
Dec 1908 Fulton Engine Company

Thanks for the high resolution scan Richard. Now we know where the nametag was also. Isn't that a neat contraption, with a knife switch on the side of the ignitor to kill the spark? |
