CNoR Special, serial #552711
18s, 17jewel, lever set, Model 2

Lorne WasylishenLarry, I just assumed they would have to be the same as the ones in the Ehrhardt book to be correct.

Lorne WasylishenSo far we have:
552711 ~ 347 ~ Dial ~ CNoR Arabic ~ Recase ~ Fortune winged wheel. (I'm thinking that since this serial# is so far out of whack with the others it is a re-dial.)
564224 ~ 347 ~ Dial ~ CNoR Roman ~ Likeness shown above from Roy Ehrhardt's Price Indicator.
564244 ~ 347 ~ Dial ~ CNoR Arabic ~ Case ~ Fortune winged wheel A.W.C.Co. Gold Filled posted in Larry's PL thread:

Lorne WasylishenA note on the South Bend 347. If you are ever looking at buying one make sure all the screws are correct.
At the bottom of the description it states:
Finish - Bevel head plate and jewel screws. South Bend Catalogue, 1911
