Welcome, the Old Town canoe with serial number 106376 is a 15 foot long, AA (or top) grade, fifty pound model with red Western cedar planking, open mahogany gunwales, a keel, a floor rack, and no seats. It was built between May and July, 1930. The original exterior canvas covering was painted dark green. It shipped on June 2nd, 1931 to Gansevoort, New York. The back side of the card indicates that came back for salvage on December 21st, 1931. It was repaired and sold again on July 16th, 1932 to Dover-Foxcroft, Maine. Scans showing both sides this build record can be found below.
These scans and several hundred thousand more were created with substantial grants from the Wooden Canoe Heritage Association (WCHA) and others. A description of the project to preserve these records is available at http://www.wcha.org/catalogs/old-town/records/ if you want more details. I hope that you will donate, join or renew your membership to the WCHA so that services like this can continue. See http://www.wcha.org/about-wcha to learn more about the WCHA and http://www.wcha.org/store/membership to join.
It is also possible that you could have another number or manufacturer if this description doesn't match the canoe. Feel free to reply here if you have any other questions.
