18908Archive consists of the trade catalog art work for cloth finishing and packaging machinery built by the Parks & Woolson Machine Co. of Springfield VT. The earliest art work 1890s was executed by the Lincoln & Smith Press of Boston then the James McKinnon Co. designers engravers and electrotypers of Springfield Mass. but all the 1920s work was by the Springfield Photo-Engraving Co. which may have been their successors. The normal procedure was for the artist to take a photograph in the earlier versions a mounted studio photograph then a "blue" from a glassplate negative then a glossy black & white photo and interpret it according to instructional notation. In the earlier work this was done by painting right on the photograph. But the 1920s work the majority of the collection is painted on separate board with tissue overlay. Some of the latest versions also have photographic proofs of the printing plate made from the artwork. In the marginal notes appear the names of some of Parks & Woolson's clients for specific machines: Renfrew Manufacturing Co.; Clinton Woolen Mfg. Co.; Lebanon Woolen Mills; Woonsocket Rubber Co.; Farr Alpaca Co. The names of such machines as have titles show the inheritance from the English textile manufacturing trade: Lancashire Winder and Uxbridge Inspecting Machine or their origin in the United States: the Vermont napper or the Pennsylvania plush shear and occasionally the inventor: Baird Webster P.T. Wilson etc. Parks & Woolson themselves were fond of strange combination words to describe their own multi-stage machines: Seamlethru; Transferotor. This archive shows in great detail the changes in a wide range of machinery to finish and fold or roll cloth over a crucial period in the textile industry as well as illuminating the interpretation of a machine photograph for half-tone duplication.

Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) First and Only Edition of this extremely rare first user guide for the Ottoman market for a sewing machine manufactured by the Singer Company. This richly illustrated user guide in Ottoman Turkish, printed for "28 K" model (manufactured in 1882) of Singer sewing machines includes numerous diagrams showing the parts of the machine and threading the needle, sewing techniques, using the belt wheel and foot pedal, measuring techniques, the thickness of needles and threads, and how to detect and avoid counterfeits of the brand. In Ottoman Empire, Singer sewing machines were initially started to be offered for sale in Constantinople and Smyrna (today's Istanbul and Izmir) in the 1880s, soon after Isaac Merritt Singer & Company was incorporated with Edward B. Clark, Attorney-at-law from New York in 1851. The company opened its first dealer/dealership in the last period of the Imperial Ottoman at Cadde-i Kebîr [i.e. Istiklâl Street] in Pera, and became the first foreign company to open a dealer/dealership and issue an invoice in Turkey. As the first company to use the "direct marketing" method, Singer went to mountain villages in Turkey, together with its salespersons, instructors, and technicians, who were in charge of showing and informing people on how to use Singer sewing machines, for many years. Singer was the first company to prepare user's guides, to provide extensive service, to initiate the practice of "Guarantee Coupon", to deliver training on sewing - embroidery, and to introduce gas stoves and ovens to Turkish people. In addition, Schneidertempel (Tailors Synagogue), which was founded in 1894 by Mayer Schönman, who was the tailor of Sultan Abdulhamid II in the Ottoman palace, and the head of the tailor's guild at that time, broke the monopoly of male tailors in the Ottoman Empire and led the way for every woman to do sewing at home. At the beginning of the 20th century, free sewing courses for women started to be organized by Singer in Turkey. Furthermore, Singer played a role in the history of all leading garment-industry brands of Turkey. (Source: Official Singer Website - History). ABOUT ZELLICH PRINTING HOUSE: Antonio Zelic (Zellich) of Brela was one of many Dalmatians who left his homeland in pursuit of a better life during the 19th century. However, instead of going west, he set out toward the East, to the Ottoman imperial capital - Istanbul. Upon arrival in the city on the Bosphorus, Zelic found employment at the first lithographic print house founded by Henri Cayol in the Ottoman Empire. In 1869, Zelic opened his own lithographic print house called "Zellich and Sons" (A. Zellich et fils). His descendants continued his work with great success, and the Zellich Print House, now known as "Zellich Brothers" (Zellich frères), became one of the most renowned in the Empire. The Zellich Brothers won recognition due to the high quality of their products, and, above all, the amazing beauty of their postcards and posters. Their crowning achievement was an order for the printing of the Ottoman Turkish Lira banknotes in 1914. The Zellichs received many Ottoman and international awards, including medals conferred by the Pope, the Persian shah, and the Serbian king.".

Illustrated tan softcovers lavender-coloured borders lozenge cover illust. of Dalton Super Model Machine minor shelfwear slight rubbing still VG bright copy. First edition of this uncommon promotional instruction manual and catalogue for the famed Dalton Adding Calculating Machine Super Model -- considered to be the first ten key adding machine. Dalton 1866-1926 was a successful amateur mechanic and businessman who was brought into developing the first adding machine by William & Hubert Hopkins who desperately needed money to finance their manufacturing. They set up a company in 1902 but afterwards through some secret and possibly illegal business moves by Hopkins who secretly sold his stock to the Addograph Co. Dalton managed to buy control of all rights to produce and develop adding machines and patented the invention by 1904. He would often carry a large sample machine with him fitted with glass sides to show the workings demonstrating his calculating machine becoming so successful that by 1922 over 150 models were available and over 50000 machines sold. After Lewis’ death the company was sold and merged with Remington-Rand in 1927. Worldcat locates 3 copies Oakland Pub. MT Hist. Soc. Ohio Hist.
