New English Paperback. Pbo. Small 4to. (25 x 20 cm). In English. 94, [2] p., color and b/w ills. Fiskars 1649: 365 years of Finnish industrial history. The Fiskars Corporation was formed in 1649 when a Dutch merchant named Peter Thorwöste was given a charter to establish a blast furnace and forging operation in the small village of Fiskars. The furnace produced pig iron that was shingled to wrought iron in the finery forges powered by water wheels. In the early years, Fiskars made nails, wire, hoes, and metal reinforced wheels from wrought iron. As industrial and economic development accelerated in Europe, Fiskars was on the forefront of innovation, and expanded the knifeworks to become a premier steel and ironworks company, manufacturing agricultural machinery, steam engines, and household utensils, including candlesticks, forks, and scissors. The first pair of Fiskars scissors was created more than 130 years ago, and made of heavy forged steel. One of their most recognizable products, the orange colored scissors were designed in 1967. Fiskars was also one of the first companies in Europe to manufacture microwave ovens. Fiskars was listed on the Helsinki Stock Exchange in 1915. The Fiskars Corporation (Fiskars Oyj Abp) is a metal and consumer brands company founded in 1649 at Fiskars Bruk (Finnish: Fiskarsin Ruukki), a locality now in the town of Raseborg, Finland, about 100 kilometres (62 mi) west of Helsinki on the old main road from Turku to Vyborg. Fiskars is best known today for its scissors, axes and high-quality knives.

Foster was born in Taunton Massachusetts in 1881. He went to work at age 10, and was a jack of all trades, having been, among other things, a sculptor's apprentice, a sailor, a logger, a railroad man, a street car driver, and a farmer. In 1900 Foster joined the Socialist Party, but was expelled in 1909, and then joined the I. W. W. , and, at different times, the Workers' Party, of which he was a chair, and, after a trip to Russia, the Communist Party. He is best known for writing books on labor and socialism, and for political agitation, including leading hundreds of thousand of steel workers on strikes.

Milano, 1935, stralcio con copertina posticcia muta, pp. 1473/1490 con numerose fotografie e tavole fotografiche. - !! ATTENZIONE !!: Con il termine estratto (o stralcio) intendiamo riferirci ad un fascicolo contenente un articolo di rivista, sia che esso sia stato stampato a parte utilizzando la stessa composizione sia che provenga direttamente da una rivista. Le pagine sono indicate come "da/a", ad esempio: 229/231 significa che il testo è composto da tre pagine. Quando la rivista di provenienza non viene indicata é perchè ci è sconosciuta. - !! ATTENTION !!: : NOT A BOOK : “estratto” or “stralcio” means simply a few pages, original nonetheless, printed in a magazine. Pages are indicated as in "from” “to", for example: 229/231 means the text comprises three pages (229, 230 and 231). If the magazine that contained the pages is not mentioned, it is because it is unknown to us.
