From what I see this is the only example of a Walker Turner Driver DP with a Beaver decal. The seller, originally from Quebec, moved to the US in 2000, she inherited the machine in 1995 from her father who had received them from his father. Her grandfather worked as a cabinet maker and also for the Canadian Pacific RR. She recalled using the machine with both her Dad and Grandfather. I have zero plans to disturb the decals, in fact I am a little nervous about damaging the existing paint while cleaning the old grease.
