First edition of this very scarce 1920’s promotional brochure extolling the advantages of the newly developed Maytag Gyrafoam Washer which had been designed and introduced by Howard Snyder the inventive genius at the head of Maytag’s Research & Development Department. The revolutionary new design cut down on wear and tear of clothing in mechanical washing machines by forcing water through a vaned agitator mounted on the bottom of the tub rather than drag clothes through the water with a lid dolly. Introduced in 1922 this washing machine proved to be a game changer in home appliances and a key labor saving device.

All preserved in slipcase. This remarkable archive of over 100 factory photographs & negatives and original catalogues for the Case Threshing Machine Company offer an excellent record of the famed manufacturer of steam engines farm equipment tractors road building machinery and more. Jerome Increase Case 1819- 1891 began building threshing machines in 1847 in Racine WI and by 1869 had engineered and built Case Steam Engine Number One the first steam engine for agricultural use and depicted in two of the photographs. One of the images shows the historic engine being hauled on a trailer behind a 1962 Case work truck before it was donated to the Smithsonian. This rolling steam engine revolutionized farming and road building machinery. By 1912 Case was manufacturing a complete line of heavy equipment for road building including Case Steam Road Rollers which weighed up to 10 tons and were powered by excellent 36 - 75 horsepower multi-purpose steam engines along with Graders Rock Crushers Elevators Screens and Bins. A number of the photos are reproduced in the Case Road Building Catalogue and the Case Road Roller Catalogue. The file photos include images by H.A. Wright of 10†Case Rock Crushers being pulled by LI Tractors in Washington County IN; a Case LI Motor Patrol Galion with Scarifier by H.A. Caraway mixing oil with gravel in Montana; LI Tractors & Adams Maintainers by Daubert building roads in Polk County IA and more. Many of the images depict the Case Model C 1929-1939 and Case Model D gasoline engine tractors introduced in 1939 and developed through the 1940s and 1950s. The original photos show CI tractors fitted with Roustabout Cranes; cranes cleaning boulders from fence rows in 1929; equipped with a portable Stover Wood Saw for mills and logging; DI tractors with Hough Hydraulic Shovels; equipped with Hough fork lift; 42-inch bucket shovel; outfitted with caterpillar tracks and much more. Of particular interest in the archive is the exceedingly scarce Case Automobile catalogue for Mexico and other automobiles can be seen in the Road Building Machinery catalogue as well. In 1910 Case had purchased the Pierce Motor Co. and quickly began manufacturing the Pierce-Racine automobile and later the Case Auto employing Pierce Motor Cos.’ 8000 dealers and agents worldwide. Case produced touring models sedans coupes and limousines as well as race cars. They ceased production of autos in the mid-1920s. Of additional interest are the two reports included on the productivity gains made by the rapidly improving farm equipment manufactured by Case with graphs and details showing how farmers were benefitting from the technology improvements.

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.
