United Manufacturing Co. Little Giant.  Owner: Andrew Albrecht Cincinnati, Ohio.

    The tag on this engine reads United Manufacturing Co. Detroit, Michigan. Little Giant 2 Hp Serial No. 2154.
Who manufactured this engine? Could have been Detroit Engine Works, Termaat & Monahan, Caille or one of the   other Jefferson Ave Companies at this point we are not sure but it doesn't look like the Little Giant engines that United Manufacturing Co. produced. This may be a example of a company purchasing engines from another engine company and re-tagging to sell.
