191813517Wingold. Good. 1918. Binder. Difficult to describe this one. The catalog pages are mounted on stiff card paper with cloth binding strips holding them in the binder. However either this was done by the publisher or two catalogs were used to produce this as both sides of each page are shown. I haven't tried to peel any of the pages to answer that question. Illustrated profusely with line drawings of stoves harness furniture separators and gas engines. The gas engine are all of the Blanchard brand which I notice is the same as the last name of the company president. An interesting and very scarce catalog. I downgraded the condition on the assumption this is an aftermarket production but it might not be. ; 4to 11" - 13" tall; 61 pages . Wingold unknown
