Snowblower-what is this?

I am able to get this snowblower for free, does anyone know what make/model of this snowblower is? I can't seem to find any tags or anything on it and would like to figure out what it is. It appears to be in working order but I'm guessing I will have to go through it and check it out.

Thanks
Justin

If it is an Erskine, it"s made by Erskine Mfg, Erskine, MN. 800-437-6912. They were a private company, got bought out by Bobcat, then in a couple of years, IR went to overseas mfg, and the plant manager started up on his own.
 
The snowblowers on our Case garden tractors are single stage blowers. They do a heck of a job.....this one should also. Brother had a Lundell single stage on a 930 Case and it did a fine job.
 
I thought their early designs were a bit cumbersome, but they have an excellent reputation for their conveyors, blowers, etc. But, this is MN, so what would we know about snow?
 
I am in MN as well! The price is right on this one so I figured I will give it a shot. I am currently borrowing an old v type that you have to back into the snow with so I'm thinking this will be an upgrade from that.
 
Bring it home and clean it up. You may find a tag where you least expect it. Price is right ! What do you have to loose ? I bought a (what I think ) is an old allied 7' blower back in the fall. Did a bunch of cleaning and some patching and painting. Works great ! Would never be without it now. Brand is not as important as you think. Many parts are interchangeable and common. Good luck !
 
Wanted to add something a little of my history. My ex wife's family is from the foston, Macintosh, MN. Area. Her great uncle supposedly was the original designer of the the Erskine blower . He designed a snowblower that was pulled by his jd 60. It was made of plywood. Nice old guy. He was a farmer and I met him in 2000 or 2001. He was 93. Another company started with farm ingenuity !
