I don't have a clue but it sure has a neat valve arrangement on it. Wonder if one actually exists?

Looks like a Blakeslee to me.

Does the last word on the crankcase cover look like "WIS" as in Wisconsin ? Go over the original with a magnifying glass , even a few letter may lead you to the identity.

If it's not a Milwaukee Rice Machinery or an early Beaver or Leroi from Milwaukee, it's darn close! I have an early Milwaukee Rice that has a couple similar characteristics. Wish it was next to mine to compare the two! Jason
