Moshannon Mfg. Co. was a specialty manufacturer in the woodworking industry around the beginning of the 1900s. According to advertising we were able to locate, their product line included "single and double shapers, combination shaper and carvers, cutter heads, wing cutters, and designers of specialty machines". The company was located in Philipsburg, Pennsylvania. The references we were able to find on this company dated to 1902 and 1903. It is unknown when the company started manufacturing machines, and it is also unknown when the company ceased to do business. We don't know whether the business closed down, or was bought out by or merged with some other company. If anyone has information about Moshannon Mfg. Co., please contact us at the Site Historian link, above.
