Secondary biographical material indicates that equipment, records, or artifacts connected with Schmoll’s career may have entered an institutional collection, possibly the Smithsonian.18
No specific accession number, object, collection name, donor record, catalog entry, photograph, or Smithsonian citation has yet been identified.
This should therefore be treated strictly as a research lead.
A potentially more concrete route is to investigate surviving Stanley Aviation collections, corporate records, aerospace museums, and archival donor files. A public exhibit catalog alone may not contain personal provenance information even when the underlying accession file does.

The claim should remain a research lead until an institutional accession record is located. — ↩
