But I've been wrong before, so the exchange of serial numbers
might clarify this point at last.
After we get past Mills and Caille Bros, the job of serial tracking
gets tougher, if only because fewer of the other floor machines
.exist
Watling serials are funny as they seem to jump all over the
map.
The Watling serials may be carry-overs from the original
trim that made the floor machines later produced by Watling. The
name of the firm was Daniel N. Schall and Company, and early
Watling floor machines carry a tag that says "Watling Manufact
uring Company, successors to D. N. Schall & Company." Schall
made the JUDGE, MARQUETTE, CUPID and a lot of other ma
chines that were continued by Watling, with a Watling JUDGE
serial known to be 06580 (drop the first "0" to get 6580). But
here's the confusion.
A known Watling DEWEY is serialed 95
