Comments:
i dont know alot about the history of this machine but it is on display at the Cracker Country Living History Museum (Tampa, Fl). it is located in the black smith shop on the grounds. There are some markings (Champion Blower and forge Co. / Lancaster Pa. U.S.A. / 102-3)
there is a blower or a forge there made by the same company, ill have to have them take it out to take some picture of it. Eventually ill get some better lighting to take better pics of the DP ill also try to get some more history on the DP from the curator in my updates.
