Vintage 1933 Treatise on Quenching Steel Booklet-HOUGHTON VINTAGE INDUSTRIAL BOOKLET ON STEEL PROCESSING (HEATING AND COOLING) 1933-Houghton on Quenching: A Treatise on the quenching of steel. Prepared by The Research Staff of E.F. Houghton & Co., Philadelphia, Chicago, Detroit. 64 pages. 6x9". Text, charts, couple of ads in the back. Couple of penciled notations inside. CONDITION: Pages clean but with age yellowing. Covers show a bit of scuffing, edge wear, some creasing--no major flaws; some small ink stains to bottom front, age bronzing to edges. Good condition overall; clean. SHIPPING: Depending on sales volume, I ship once or twice a week, Wednesday and Friday or Saturday. Between Thanksgiving and Christmas, I ship more often. MY STORE: Please come and browse in my store, DeVito's Books-TV Closeout Jewelry. I sell mostly vintage paper, including valentines and greeting cards, vintage teen and children's magazines and books. POSTAGE & HANDLING: P&H includes exact postage (within two ounces) plus a nominal handling fee to help with the expenses of doing business with eBay/PayPal. COMBO SHIPPING: I will be happy to combo ship, but must charge a modest handling fee for each item added to the package. EBay doesn't offer a fee discount on combo purchases so I must pass some of that expense on to the buyer. Timely payment is expected. If there will be a delay, please email to let me know. Returns are expensive and it is disappointing for the buyer to pay shipping both ways and end up with nothing, so please ask if you are unsure about anything in my listing. I want you to be happy with your purchase. There are hundreds of thousands of sellers out there and I am pleased that you have chosen to shop with me. Welcome to my store and auctions. There is nothing I like better than repeat customers. I have been an antiques, books, ephemera and collectibles dealer since 1984, and have been selling on eBay since 1998. Please visit my eBay store DeVito's Books-TV Closeout Jewelry for a wide variety of early and vintage items in many different categories. My specialties are Victorian and vintage valentines, postcards, kids' and juvenile books, and ephemera (paper) items. I am always having a store sale, so please stop by and browse. Feel free to e-mail me any questions you might have. HANDLING TIME: My listing indicates 10 business days to ship, only because eBay makes me choose a handling time. To be on the safe side, I have chosen 10 days in case I am away on a business trip (which happens rarely, but life does sometime interfere with my eBay business). Typically, I ship two or three times a week (Wednesday and Friday) and one other day that varies). I cannot remember ever taking 10 days to ship an item in all my years on eBay. Depending on when your payment comes in, your package will normally ship within 3 days, sometimes as fast as 1 day, sometimes as long as 4 or 5 days. During pre-holiday weeks, or by request, I ship more often. Please don't hesitate to buy from me thinking your item will take forever to arrive--it won't.
