I just picked up a small inboard with LAKE imbossed
in the cylinder. Does anyone know any thing about the history. Thanks B.J. Pawlaczyk |

Can you post some pictures, or if you cannot, can you send them to one of the senior members, who would gladly do that for you |

This is an extremly obscure Engine maker J.H.Lake
Phiadelphia, Pennsylvania. They were a Novelty Company and made many items, as to their engines I have seen a 1905 reference, this is the only photo ad I have ever seen it's 1906. Lake was the Philadelphia dealer for the Stamford Marine Engnes in 1906 as well. Have seen No other references or ads after 1907 ??
That is a rare and maybe the only one, a very special little piece of history- Great find !
1906

Here is another one; I apologize for the soft images - access was difficult.
