188311061Chicago: Rand McNally & Co 1883. Softcover. Very good. Large octavo 16pp. plus folding illustration at rear. A very good copy in the original printed wrappers with some splitting at the spine and a few nicks but overall sound. The folding plate is in excellent condition. It shows a detailed image of the "Multiple Switch Board for Indianapolis." In 1881 just two years before this pamphlet was produced Alexander Graham Bell purchased the Western Electric Company which scholars have described as a crucial step in the standardization of telephone technology and equipment. Just a few years earlier telephone conversations could only be had between rented pairs of phones attached by a line that had no way to connect to other telephones. The switchboard allowed for operators to manually move connections between lines so that anyone with a telephone could call anyone else with a telephone-at least locally-and the technology rapidly improved from then on. Quite scarce with none in the auction record and just two separately catalogued listings in OCLC NYHS Duke. . Rand, McNally & Co unknown

1990713h5973Canada: P.C.A.V.F. Fine. 1990. First Edition. Paperback. "Exciting events and dramatic changes have occurred during the first 50 years of logging the Chemainus River valley. The outstanding achievements of the operation were accomplished by the superb efforts of all those who have worked there. The long term plan to continue producing high quality logs at 1990 production levels or higher on a sustained yield basis will undoubtedly require as many changes in the next 50 years as we have seen in the past history of the operation. We trust that someone will pictorially record these changes so that those reviewing the history of copper Canyon in 2040 after a century of production can smile as we do today at the inefficiencies of our early efforts." - page 2. 44 pages. Printed upon glossy stock profusely illustrated with high-quality black and white reproductions of archival photos. Many photos include workers who are named. Undated second printing of the 1990 first edition probably circa 1990. Clean bright and unmarked with trivial wear. An excellent copy. ; Cover Illustration; 4to . P.C.A.V.F. paperback
