    On the first one

    the closest thing I could find is the Verona, made by American Radiator. It is rated 4 sq. ft EDR at 38 inches tall, 3-1/3 at 32 inches, 2-2/3 at 26 inches and 2 at 20 inches, the same as a standard 2-column rad. The Verona is 8-inches deep, does this match yours?



    For the second one I'd use any single-column chart.



    Any idea who made these beauties?

    Thanks for replies.  Radiator is 34 high, 13 1/2 wide and each section is 5 thick.  My best guess is 10sqft/section.

    Piece of string

    If you can't ID them just use a piece of string to determine the circumference of the tube and multiply that by the total length, that will get you the EDR of that section. It will be accurate for all intents and purposes.
