Hello,
Last weekend at an auction, I picked up the following engine castings along with a set of original blueprint type blueprints. The engine is described as a "1 1/4"x 2 1/4" x 1 1/2" Compound Vertical". The drawings were made by an H. J. Coventry of Baltimore, Maryland with the earliest one dated October, 1931.
Some machining has been done and to my untrained eye it looks to be very well done. Completing this engine is a beyond my current capabilities, but I'm hoping to tackle it some day. Meanwhile, I'd like to find out a little more about it. Does anyone know anything about the company that produced these? Any photos of a completed engine? etc. etc.
Thanks in advance,
Dennis
