A blog about my the history, acquisition and operation of my 1911 Model 62 Stanley Steamer.

A piece of real history

​Now here is some history. This is a copy of a page out of the B.C. Vehicle Registration book in 1913. It clearly shows my Stanley under plate 2011 with owners Mr. Walker and Mr. Glenny listed. Interestingly enough it also lists an earlier owner by the name of John Stevens of Eburne, B.C. who I've heard absolutely nothing about till this point. We're going to keep searching and see if we can find the 1911 registration in an earlier book to confirm the original owner.

Special thanks to Peter Findlay for searching the records and the folks at www.bcpl8s.ca for hosting this great information.
