Description:
After a quick clean tune-up, this Rex Visible #4 is ready to go! Great hand-drawn pinstripes on this one. I believe this one dates to 1918, given the Davis Brothers' history on the Harris/Rex, and that "American Can" took over distribution in 1918, even though the serial number might be 1916 or 1917. This is another machine from the Bob Aubert collection of Delran, NJ: July 2023.
