The Mystery of "Who Did It?" | Engels Coach Shop

Who built this stagecoach originally? That answer is a mystery we are trying to solve. Every carriage builder had their own style and signatures. Building and restoring horse drawn vehicles involves uncovering histories of each vehicle. Some are well know, but others are from obscure shops and craftsmen or women. I suspect this coach is of that origin, and I'll try to explain why.
