Very pretty... Great find.

Does it really need the circa sticker?

Haha no it doesn't... came from a collection that was displayed at an Illinois show in the late '70's. All of his engines had these labels, just haven't had a chance to remove it yet  ;)

I like the cranked-up paint treatment on the base.  Someone probably knows, but I'm guessing the green shows this engine is one of the last variants in the 1930's.  I really like it.  I'm missing the /2 model to complete the model line.  One day...

Flywheel and aggregate look to be in great shape... the entire engine really.

Great addition.

I assumed being a smooth firebox and metal DC badge on the cast base would make this earlier... But I do not know for sure  ???

I have found an old post from Mike (Maxwell) stating:

Quote
So, no one has a catalog picture for the double slide valve below? but we have pictures of the single slide valve/rod from the 1929 catalog below. I believe that the single slide valve/rod was produced before the double; do you agree?

Mine is the single, but he said 1929 catalog, so maybe you are close on the date Scott?

Thanks Bob, unfortunately I am terrible at focusing on one area of steam and have filled a room wall to wall, floor to ceiling  :D

I would say Doll is my favorite maker of accessories and one of my favorite engine makers... but Märklin and Mersey would be at the top of that list.
