Office of Steam Forum for Model & Toy Steam Gas & Hot Air Engines

I had a busy day yesterday. Between fiddling with recalcitrant gasoline engines to cursing video that won't transfer out of my phone, I managed to get a few items up to present.
I planned to save these for the end, but I'm running out of time. So without further ado-

First-



This engine was built by the firm Maltete and Parent in Paris. This engine would have been built around 1876-1880, as Maltete left the firm after that and Parent focused mainly on the mechanical toy market. It is in original condition, with the only replacement being the SV weight.

Interestingly, I found this scrap of paper, rolled up in the chimney. It states "Patent Motor. Built by Maltete and Parent, 19 Rue Debellyme, Paris(the address on account for the company prior to dissolution). [ Guests cannot view attachments ]
