I saw the photo of this eng when it was posted on the Mystic's web site last year and was finally able to put a picture of the eng to the Manufacturers name. I have not seen a reference of any kind to this mfgr since 1911 ? My earliest listing is 1900 and they were at 822 Clark Avenue in St Louis. The American Boating Directory 1906 listed them as a marine eng mfgr their address was 2519 South 2nd Street St Louis.
The American Shipping journal listed them in 1911 at the same South Street address.
Another of the very obscure Old Marine Engine Mfgrs !
What a Cool old open based Marine engine !!
