Was probably used on a Russel winching tug similar to tug #580 that was used on the Gatineau river between 1946 and 1978

A similar tug was represented on the back of the Canadian one-dollar bill that circulated between 1974 and 1989.

Russel Brothers Limited manufactured 300 winching tugs between 1929 and 1970, first in Fort Francis, Ontario (1907 to 1937) and then in Owen Sound (1937 to 1993)
