A vintage softcover trade catalog by the Reading Iron Company, 23 pages. Saddle stapled binding. Paper wraps with the title and illustration at the front cover. Printed in black and white (with orange borders) on thick, slick paper. With many illustrations and diagrams throughout. This catalog was once glued into something else. It has since been removed, leaving glue and paper residue along the spine. Toning to the front cover. Otherwise, pages are clean and free of writing. The title page and final page are starting to separate one another, along the spine. The binding remains tight and strong, with no other loose pages. A neat 1920s instructive manual for home builders, with tips for choosing the best make and model of pipes and hints to aid in the proper installation of pipes. With sections entitled “Kinds of Pipe,” “The Importance of Your Decision,” “How to Specify Reading,” “Piping Pointers,” and “Double Welding Makes for ‘Reading’s’ Superiority in the Manufacture of Genuine Wrought Iron,” among others. Each section includes a description and at least one illustration. With specifications for a few different types of pipes, to aid a client in choosing the best size of pipe.…

If you'd like tracking, please let us know before you place the order - We're happy to do it but it costs $1 extra because it means we have to print a shipping label for it individually, slowing down the shipping process considerably -- and we want to be able to keep basic shipping costs as low as we can.
