Artikelbeschreibung vom Verkäufer

Softcover trade publication featuring machine tools used in war contracts. A thin volume, unpaginated with light orange paper wraps. Saddle-stapled binding. Illustrated throughout in black & white, with some orange-tinted drawings as well. Many of the photographs show workers actually using the tools. Though no date of publication is stated, the context of this volume and a 1943 date stamp on the front cover indicate an early-1940s copyright. Bumped on the top edge and corners, with some shallow creases down the spine from handling. The spine also shows some chipping, especially at the crown and foot. Some library markings, including Reference, Catalogue Library, and Mar 30 1943 stamps on the front cover, along with some small writing in ink and pencil. The number 16281 is stamped inside the front cover, as well. An otherwise clean & nice copy in very good condition. Includes several short reports, accompanied by numerous photographs, titled: No Machine Tools Available - - so Black & Decker Drills - and Ingenuity - Saved 4 Months Starting War Contract; Auto Repair Shop Goes to War!; Rush Power Lines for War Plants with B. & D. Drills; and more.

Shop-Beschreibung

We're at 805 Caroline Street, in the heart of Fredericksburg's historic district. Open Monday to Saturday 10-6; and Sunday 12-5. In warmer months we stay open until 9 most nights, but you might want to call ahead. (540) 373-6148 Shipping rates are for Media Mail, in a padded envelope - WE DO NOT ADD TRACKING UNLESS THE CUSTOMER REQUESTS IT AND PAYS FOR IT - we have been selling books online for more than 20 years & find that the USPO delivers 99.99% of packages quickly and safely, without any need for a tracking number. We trust them & we hope you will too. If you need tracking, please consider PRIORITY SHIPPING. We ship orders valued at more than $50 in a box, at no additional charge. Priority mailing is for a Flat-Rate envelope, with tracking included. If the book does not fit into a flat rate envelope, we will likely need to request extra shipping costs from you, in order to put it in a box. We only charge the actual amount of shipping, so we hope you'll understand that it's just a matter of getting the book to you without taking a loss on it -- shipping is a service we happily offer without a 'handling' charge.... but we can't afford to charge you less than the cost of the stamps!
