That's more than the common 1928 reprints, Joe,

And the lithographed parts images are far better! Deluxe and Dayton, etc., are not listed in the reprint; I wish I could read the fractional sizes, but they do not enlarge for me.

The invoice is delightful, of course:

I'll try to scan the table better and post it here

If the very last page, Joe,..

is 'Factory Assembly Number Data', and there are others than Cleveland,Excelsior, HD and Indian, that might be a rosetta stone!

Many thanks from all of us,

Here is the equipment list I scanned. It’s about the best I could get them, the pages have water damage and the scans are really big and I have to reduce the size of the files to get them to load here….

Hope that’s useful.

Here’s the thing though, according to the equipment list the carb I have is for an Emblem twin, But looking at some google images….



The manifolds look a lot longer. And the manifold nuts do look like Excelsior. So I guess it’s still kind of a mystery? The table has 1915-1916 twin as 1 3/16-20 left hand, mine is 1 3/16-20 right hand, could it be a 100 year old typo?

I believe this is a 16 Excelsior…that looks like the manifold
