I thought this was a Dempster when it was in the pile. Sorting the boneyard out, I see now it's not a Dempster. Can you help me out? Thanks!

Any casting numbers? I can’t read any of the casting numbers with any certainty. Possibly a Dempster 6 or 7?

There are casting numbers on it. The numbers and the tower top look nothing like a Dempster. No fan, and Im not certain about a tail. No tower either.

Oh I'm 99 % sure that the front hub is not correct.

The tower cap is likely for a wood tower…best guess.

It is a unique design and you had it in the correct pile.
