Seemingly random issues of the publication from 1950-1957. Also included the unique 5-page typed (and one smaller page handwritten) "Christmas cards received by JMS" list for 1955 of Mr Schaeffer, including addresses, mostly for other machinery firms in Conn. and worldwide, typed in black and red ink (tape repair to one page), probably secretarial. and one 8 x 10 glossy photo of Mr Schaeffer and an unidentified man overlooking machinery on what is probably the assembly floor. The latter two in a corporate envelope addressed to his widow. This material presumably descended in the president's family.
