Anyone ever see a Middleditch Marine engine? Found this advertisement in a Power Boating magazine of 1914. This advertisement was published after Bessemer Engine Co. purchased the Middleditch Engine Company and all it's Gaso-Kero 2 cycle engines, patterns, jigs & patents in Nov of 1912. Ben Middleditch did call his engine business "Middleditch Engine Company" and was in the engine business for 6 or 7 years.

I had one years ago. Not sure where it went.
It was exhibited at Mystic at least once so it should be somewhere in the Mystic pics on here. |
