Re: York or Conn?
If, as they claim, the serial # really IS 83577, then for Conn it would be 1904, and for York (American) it would be c.1926. My bet would be York (European B&M, who made many of the "Master" line, from Oct 1940+ ).
Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

My point? If his repairs are like his spelling, he isn't very good, and is rather careless...
