Just a re-introduction-Guy Woollard, formerly of HTP, currently in sales for Smith Boiler, in the commercial end of things.

I will forward that picture to Don Pratt, our resident historian and someone who is as intrigued by both history and technology as anyone that I have ever met. He should be able to put a date to that beautiful piece of iron.

    Radiator

    We actually completed this project several years ago. We were back doing some PM on the A/C system and I snapped some photos of these radiators. The homeowner found these at a salvage yard and had them refinished. I'm not sure what type these are but I'm sure steamhead will know. -DF

    Actually I don't know

    I thought they might have been made by H.B. Smith Co.- note what looks like a 3-inch section width, which almost all their column rads had- but they don't appear in my 1896 Smith fitter's catalog. No name on them anywhere, eh?

    Here is one I took out of a church that was built in 1890. That is pretty old for my neck on the woods. It is a roman radiator that is shown in Dan's EDR book near the front. Cool looking feet. I am also posting a steam raditor that came out of the same church. No idea who makes that one. They are both in rough condition. I love to find this old stuff.
