7' Chestnut Canoe Co. display sample

Roger Young

display sample collector
A recent newcomer to the collection (I've been lusting after it for several years). Finally able to bring it home. A 7' 1", c. 1910, closed gunwale, cedar/canvas display model by the Chestnut Canoe Co., Fredericton, NB, in original finish throughout, and only a few bumps and scuffs with some hairlines in the paint. Looks to be a half-size version of the "Peach". One of only two known to me at the moment; there may be others out there. Some quick photos follow.
