Builder's Photo

Does one exist?
Image from June, 1893 Official Railway Equipment Register, p230

From Eric Neubauer Laconia data, the following cars were built by Laconia:

10147-10255 (50,000 lbs, built 1892)

B&MRRHS 1900-1907 Freight Car Lettering Book No. 1 (Reprint of B&M lettering diagrams)
Note the "Book page number" below refers to the page number in the B&MRRHS book.
As the B&MRRHS book's pages are NOT numbered, "1" is the first page with an actual diagram! (NOT the title pages or index pages)
"U" = upper diagram on that page, "L" = lower diagram
The "Diagram number" refers to the circled number (lower right corner) in each diagram (the original page number)
