I persevere on (against considerable odds
). Taking the hint(s) of RBailey

It was built in 1912. The type is mentioned in Flight, but only as part of a list and nothing there to clue you in to it being a canard.

while it was entered in a military trial, it is probably not one you are thinking of, and the trial was in 1913 (although this machine was built in 1912).

I came to the Italian military competition of 1913, which is very little featured in Flight, but this can be found in Flight 1913, March 29...
So to narrow the field, excluding Caproni, the work is laid out before us as it can be a:
- T.A. Milano
- Meccanica Lombarda (S.A.M.L. that is)
- Tonini-Bergonzi
- Wolsit
- Borba Cesare
- Chiribini (Chiribiri actually !)
- Gabardini
- Macchi
- S.I.T.
- Castellani
To say the least a very little known collection
Cheers
