Canada

Canadian Blower and Forge Co. established in Montreal as a subsidiary of Buffalo Forge Co. The artefact was advertised in the Fairbanks-Morse Ltd. Catalogue. Fairbanks Morse had a major factory in Sherbrooke, P.Q. and branches located in all of the major cities in Canada. It was a manufacturing company in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, as well as a supplier of metal working machinery. Buffalo Forge Co. was founded in 1878 to manufacture blacksmiths' forges, created Canadian subsidiary in Montreal in 1905 and that was relocated to Kitchener in 1914. The Fairbanks Morse Co. manufactured parts for railroad locomotives, but the majority of these parts failed and lost popularity. They also branded products for farms, factories and mines.
