When I purchased this canoe, I was unable to find any identifying marks on it. It probably dates back to the fifties and it is probably an American boat. It was brilliantly restored by the skilled and talented people at Canots Nor West (http://nor-west.ca/en) in Prévost, Québec. It is 16', weighs about 72 lb. More photos and additional details can be provided on request. This is a functional canoe. It is not a museum piece. It is beautiful, in excellent shape and after a lifetime of paddling canoes of all sorts, I can honestly say this is the sweetest canoe to paddle I have ever been in. The only reason I'm selling it now is that, at age 76 and with lower back twinges, it's become a little heavy for me to heft and portage on my own.
