The company is very old, but it wasn't incorporated until 1908 (closed dowwn 1915) so possibly some time between those dates your's was made. If you search Deal Buggy Co. catalogue you may still have time to view some of the products (including model #26 which may be close to your's) Good luck

Now once more please Dan, but end with the word catalogue. I don't know if we can bring up links to active auctions

(p.s. no Dan, I was kidding, please don't post the auction link here. I included the Exact way to access it so pl8man could get an accurate look at the catalogue offered up now and the info. before it expires)

Thanks for the info !

Glad you saw the catalogue before the auction expired. It's frustrating not being able to post those sources but the auction's rules were specific. (it's probably kind of like "don't remove this tag from the matress under penalty of law" but whadayado)

Here is a picture of a carriage built by the Deal Buggy Company in 1897.
