  3. Hammerkid,

    I've looked all through my 1909 catalog, can't find a single blower like that one. My guess is that it's a later manufactured blower, probably for a portable forge, judging by the orientation of the gearbox, and position of the mounting bracket. Keep looking, you'll find it's vintage. I'll keep an eye out for anything I can find like it by Champion.

    That one looks like the little Buffalo Bufco blowers that are on ebay a lot, just a Champion brand, which leads me to think it's for a portable setup. The little Bufco's weigh very little compared to a shop style blower.

    Ok thanks!!!! I got this old bufco ! My great- Grandpa`s Buffalo Blower (for coal forge) - Blacksmith Photo Gallery
    hope to clean it up soon
  4. Jayco,

    I have a reproduction copy of a 1909 Champion catalog that has blowers in it. I could scan some pages and email them to you, if you want, for reference. Just PM me your email address if interested.
