Sold to Luria Bros 4/18/1961. Dismantled by Lederer Iron & Steel in Cleveland 11/61. After doing some research, it looks like almost every one of these is a Berk.

It lasted until being sold for scrap to the Luntz Iron & Steel Company on Jaunary 23, 1962. No date or location was given so approximates were used.The photo is from the Howard W. Ameling collection.
