Storke's original patent for corrugated planes is also on the Galoot's
Progress and was provided by Steve Reynolds the Patent Guy. The Auburn
Metallic Plane Co. history was provided by Dan Weinstock, a noted Auburn
Metallic collector. He may chime in since he is (or at least was) lurking
here. Auburn Metallic planes are collectible and the few examples I have
seen have been priced at >$100, some a lot more.

Don't drop it. Heh, heh.
