Did Sterling buy the Denver Siren patent?

I guess out of the numerous companies that side-tracked their line of products to help with the war efforts, a few of them thought it might've been profitable to just keep going in that direction, since they already invested money to make the stuff.

Don't forget B&N, they were originally a sheet metal manufacturing company. I'm not sure what CLM did/does, but it certainly wasn't/isn't sirens, either.

I believe CLM's back ground resides in the name. cant remember what CLM stands for. Hopefully SirenDude will join in. guy's a Canadian Siren guru as far as Im concerned

Oh, and not to double post but I just remembered Darley. They're still around making fire apparatus, I assume that's what they did previously to building sirens.

anyways, back on topic. any thoughts about the siren patent? does it make sense? this could be a piece of Sterling's history we don't know about here

No sterling did not buy Denver. Erick siren bought Denver. If you look at the older Erick they look like a vertical Denver with 1 set of rotors instead of 2

If thats the case, thenwhy would Sterling make a siren EXACTLY like a Denver siren if they did not buy the patent?

[PeachtreeSirens]

Because someone from ATI time-travelled?

Seriously though, it could be an early case of "re-hashing", similar to the Darley-Federal relationship.

I've also noticed the Denver and Erick siren similarites. The two are definitely connected in some form or fashion.
