Yours is the 1895 model as mine is. I've only seen one 1891 model but I'm sure there's more out there. This is mine.

Bob is this what your towers date looks like if so that is a snow manufacturing company tower that they put their Decorah mill on. Challenge took over the Snow windmill co and probably used one of there towers. Nice!!
