 A September, 1900 edition of "The Fairbanks Co. Supply Catalog" This nearly One Hundred Fifteen (115) Year old book is being offered for your consideration. No Reserve!Measures 6-5/16" tall x 5" wide x 1-1/8" thick with 698 pages. Generally in fantastic condition considering its age with no major flaws to report. I will note yellowing to it's pages, several notes penciled in on the copyright page, and a slight curl to the cloth covered front cover. All pages are intact, no tears or folds noted except last page, no stains, binding is good, always high & dry; a great example to add to your library. This catalog is heavily illustrated through out with many pictures, multiples per page. A great reference for "The collector of Gas, team, Mill. Factory and Railway ~ Supplies, Tools & Machinery" Hundreds of listings, way too much to compile a list of here, but examples include; Scales, copying presses, engine governors, gauges, steam engine, boilers, steam whistles, rod oilers, sight oilers, grease cups, lubricators, locomotive, oil pumps, engineers oiler sets, fire hydrants & fire apparatus, pumps, carts, wagons, wheels, machinery of all descriptions, blacksmith forges, anvils, vises, hand tools for all tradesmen, logging, overhead drive systems, pulleys, machinist, pipe fitter, grinders, swage blocks, trucks, carts, barrows, ore / mining, plows, lathes, gas & gasoline engine, dynamos, hoisting engines, vertical engines w/ boiler, horizontal engines, locomotive style boilers, useful information/charts, and index. This appears to be a well cared for 'Early' example in great shape, by my estimation. In no way am I an expert book appraiser or grader. I have made an effort to call out what I see and if you feel I have missed something, please call upon me with QUESTIONS. I will try to answer best I can. I expect you will be pleased to add this rare example to your collection, your satisfaction is my goal Please ask QUESTIONS Happy New Year from Oilgasboy Canadian friends, First Class international is available, but at assigned risk as insurance may not be available Thanks for looking
