Hot Water Heat made in Johnstown

This is a heating system that I still depend on everyday. Did you know that the radiators for Sears were made right here in Johnstown by National Raditor Company, that later became Crane. My father and aunt both worked for the company before they went out of business in the 1960's.

How on earth they would have shipped these to your home is beyond me. If you have ever tried to move these things - they weight a ton. A couple of weeks ago, it took three of us moving one just a couple of feet and a gang of guys to carry one up to the attic.
