History Of Fairbanks Morse Co. {steam Oil Well Engine Railroad Catalogs} On Dvd For Sale
DESCRIPTION
Fairbanks, Morse & Company had its beginning in 1823 when inventor
Thaddeus Fairbanks began an ironworks in St. Johnsbury, Vermont,
to manufacture two of his patented inventions, a cast iron plow
and a heating stove. In 1829 he started in a hemp dressing
business for which he built the machinery. Though unsuccessful in
fabrication for fibre factories, another invention by Thaddeus,
the platform scale, formed the basis for the great enterprise.
In the late nineteenth century business expanded in the Western
United States, as did the company's catalog. It grew to include
typewriters, hand trucks, railway velocipedes, pumps, tractors and
a variety of warehouse and bulk shipping tools. The company became
an industrial supplier distributing complete "turn-key" systems:
tools, plumbing, gauges, gaskets, parts, valves and pipe.
Fairbanks Morse and Company was a manufacturing company in the
late 19th and early 20th century. Originally a weighing scale
manufacturer, it later diversified into pumps, engines, windmills,
locomotives and industrial supplies.
This is a collection of vintage catalogs spanning the years 1910
to 1920. Of special note is the 1910 Fairbanks-Morse catalog, a
wonderfully illustrated catalog, full of engines, pumps, parts,
information on there workings, and more. Includes a very
interesting section for farm power plants, generators, lamps,
bulbs and everything you need to electrify an early farm
establishment. The beautiful cover graphics alone make this a
definite must have for the Fairbanks-Morse collector!
