    Each section is 9", wide 30" tall, 1 3/4" thick. Total radiator length is 42" and 17 3 tube sections.
    I couldnt find this rad. in my Every darn radiator book, if I find one similar with close dimentions, will that work?

    Thanks for the information. This a pretty radiator, I sandblasted it to bare metal and painted it, I couldt believe the detail after sandblasting.

    Ok, I will try to post these , I hope it works!
  • That's a column-type radiator

    and it's a beauty! Nice job on the cleanup and paint.

    The closest height in my chart is 32 inches, which would result in a capacity for each "3-column, 32-inch high" section of 4.5 square feet EDR. So the total would be 76.5 square feet.

    You can use almost any column-type chart in "E.D.R." for these. Examples are American "Rococo" or U.S. "Florentine". The one you can't use is for H.B. Smith rads, they were different.
