So I came across this catalogue, dated 1891. And it seems to be all original, without missing pages. Which there are a total of
187.

My question is after a search it seems like there are no real copies of their product catalogues, if there is any interest I may send it out to get scanned so I can share the information and publications.

Photos too small can't read them.

Once I get to my computer I will re upload them, I think using my phone caused them to cone out too small.

I wonder how costs would pencil out if you had reprints made and offered them for sale, so you'd get something for your troubles.

I have thought about that but wasnt sure how common or in demand this publication would be. But either way I figured if anyone on here has anything they build I could at the very least provide scans of that catalogue page for them.
 
Lindsay or nation builder reproduces a lot of old steam and gas engine catalogs and such as well as old technological books. Support them, theyre invaluable to us.

Must be a while since you supported Lindsay, he's been out of business for a few years. "your old time bookstore" is selling off what's left, but it's getting thin.
 
Wanted to add a few photos of an older auction I found;

This is the only piece of machinery I have found that was made by them, though it looks to be a little later of a model than the catalog I have shows. I still think its pretty interesting & I am positive OSHA would still approve the commercial use of this beast.

I was wondering if this mooring post was in your catalogue and how it is described.

Sorry for the late reply, I havent been active for a bit.

But looking through the catalogue I couldnt find anything relating to this specific cast. There were a few smaller tie down style casts but nothing this large. There are slme shipyard items they have made so it is possible this was offered after my catalogue when they got further into the market? Im not sure, sorry I couldnt help more!
