Title: Henderson
Post by: James Orcutt on August 11, 2019, 01:58:27 PM

I am interested in the Henderson double rear brake.   I understand this was developed sometime around 1917 by Hendersons, and then when Excelsior purchased Henderson, they received a royalty for this brake design until sometime in 1918.

I can find no descriptions or images of this brake design.   The reason I am interested is that I have a model of a double brake design which I was told was the Henderson brake design.  It is possible this might have been a patent model or possibly a salesman sample, but would like to find out if it is actually a model of the Henderson brake.

Sorry but this site is for the 1999-2000 Excelsior Henderson built in Belle Plaine Minnesota.
I'm afraid you are going to have to find another source for your information request. Of Henderson's pre1932.
