This is definitely NOT a Mantua. And I have wo of them right here to prove it. It is, IMHO, an International. Someone, I believe Gem also had an early brass model but it did not have a vertical

I don't think this is a New One Model, they were diecast and this one looks like it is brass. Both International and Aristocraft imported a brass 0-4-0 Camelback, maybe the same one, and I think

I think that may be an old International brass import, from the late '50's/early '60's.?? DM

Re: Replacing a brass frame on a Bowser H9s ??
