I think i just figured it out, I think this is a Tiger? After googling around for past 15 minutes or so, I am trying to figure out what years these were made, and have came up short =/ Edit - I guess i was looking in the wrong places. I found a similar post here on this site, that helped lead me to I think finding my answer. Appears this is manufactured in the early 1900s by the Canedy-Otto Manufacturing Co, and it appears Tiger was the economy line.

Hey All, My grandfather is at the stage in his life where he is wanting to get rid of all of his things, and I told him i wanted to get into blacksmithing. Needless to say and I never had no clue, but he just gave away his dads blacksmithing setup... I was crushed, but he told me he had some things i could have. This blower looks really old, and I couldn't identify a brand name, I am not really interested in if its the holy grail of blows as i can promise it probably isn't. But I was hoping one of you knowledgeable blacksmiths could assist in helping a newbie identify this hand crank blower (sorry if that is not the correct term). My father is a real good metalworker, welder, ect.. but not a blacksmith, but he told me he would help me restore this. As you can see from the pictures below I guess the stand finally gave out and it fell possibly on concrete and broke. i looked inside and all the fins appear not broke. Again, I appreciate any assistance anyone could give in helping identify (I may need to clean it up more)

Good job cleaning this up, looks 100% better.
