Nameless steam radiator ID (just curious)

Found this hidden under the stairs. It's not connected and doesn't match any of the other rads in the building. Not looking for EDR, just curious if anyone recognizes the brand. There are no words on it anywhere. Photos below. 38" high, 1-column, 3-sections. Each section is about 6" deep (or "wide", if you're looking at it from the end). Not connected across the top, so steam only.

"Wreath" motif on the section tops.

Rosettes on the sides of the sections.

Supply tapping plug

Heavily painted, but not so much that the numbers on the sections can't be read. Both end sections are "334" and the single middle section is "335".
Fast. Cheap. Good.
Pick any two.

    I believe I have met that radiator before, It looks an awful lot like Floyd. Ask him if his name is Floyd... It that is him... Tell him that Edtheheaterman says Hi!

    After you make that expensive repair and you still have the same problem, What will you check next?

    Well, he seems a little reluctant to share his personal info. I don't blame him, since I think he's been ignored in the basement for the last 20 years. I'll drop your name and see if that puts him at ease. I mentioned Floyd Wells, and he grumbled "Do I look like a coal stove?"
