I have a Stromberg, one of the early ones, seems early 30s.
This is what I call a back breaker. None of the early Philco "...boys" with pan chassis even come close. My wife and I were carrying it together, and she dropped it. This is about twice the weight. I have it for over 10 years, and still have not been able to take upon it.
One day, shouild I live long enough, one day...

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
