Features which help date this machine to 1904.

1904
Unusual serial number 1904 W.

One of a kind color variation with a special serial number. This may be a specially manufactured machine for presentation to a dignitary or for display at a special event. My favorite THEORY is the 1904 Louisiana Purchase Centennial Exposition. (St. Louis World's Fair) No other event is as significant for the time period.

The style of the machine does not match the style of a machine in the 1904 serial number range. It does match the style of machine produced post 70,000 which coincides with the year 1904. No other Blickensderfer is known with a suffix on the serial number.
