Seventy cocktail recipes plus additional recipes for tinctures colorings essences and syrups and prepared cocktails for bottling and fruit wines and brandy. In 1883 three Ohio natives Messrs. Collins Weatherhead and Mayer founded Cleveland Faucet Company a brass foundry specialized in a combination pump and faucet. Their "specialties are absolutely unrivaled for utility quality and adaptability to the purposes required of them and have no superiors." Leading Manufacturers and Merchants of the City of Cleveland and Environs. Akron 1886 page 172. Their first trade catalogue was issued in 1885 and a 48-page combined trade catalogue/drinks manual was published in 1897 titled Catalogue B was reissued in 1899 now under the title Catalogue B and Bartender's Guide. Following the 1902 publication of Mixed Drinks the company offered a number of smaller 24 page catalogues with recipes titled Fancy Drinks or Fancy Drinks and Latest Toasts. Not only is Mixed Drinks the most ambitious of these catalogues with nearly twice as many recipes but it is also the most fanciful with illustrations of gnome-like characters throughout the text and on the five-color decorated wrappers. The wrapper cover illustration is positively psychedelic depicting four gnomes in a wooded glen enjoying beer being poured from a pump and is initialed in the print "H. C.". The more traditional rear panel of the wrapper contains images of three of the manufacturer's plants one each for a Carbonic Gas Plant the Pump and Brass Department and the Woodworking Department. But even these are framed in a decorative Art Nouveau botanical motif. Some soiling and spotting throughout; a few leaves creased which appears to have been a printer's error. Light soil to the wrappers; corners bumped. Includes a cancel leaf with information about 1903 prices. Rare.

The Celebrated "Perfect" Heating Furnaces and Cooking Ranges: "Perfect" Manufactured by Richards & Boynton Co. Catalogue 53
New York: Bartlett & Company The Orr Press 1896. Octavo 20.5 x 14 cm. 97 pages. Date derived from Water Street address on title page. An extensively illustrated trade catalogue of heating furnaces and cooking ranges. Before the 1830s gravity hot-air furnaces were produced according to the specifications of individual buildings. The first mass-market manufacturer in the United States was Richardson & Boynton established in 1837 and in business for more than a century thereafter. The company survived the competitive surge in home heating manufacturers in the decades after the Civil War Fuller & Warren of Troy for instance also advertised as "the oldest house in the trade" introducing innovations in fuel source efficiency flue design cleaning access and model size - to say nothing of aesthetic appeal - at a surprising rate. The foundries and shop buildings occupied a double block in Red Hook Brooklyn; corporate offices 232-234-236 Water Street were across the Brooklyn Bridge in Manhattan. By the 1890s Richardson & Boynton were advertising themselves as manufacturers of multiple designs of furnaces fireplace heaters laundry water heaters cooking ranges stoves and kitchen appurtenances such as kettles urns pastry ovens and steam tables. Owing ostensibly to climbing tunnage and wharfage costs the entire operation decamped to Dover New Jersey in February 1896. Elaborate illustrations with equally elaborate cutaways; specification charts. A bit of chipping to head and foot of wrapper at spine otherwise very good in two-toned brown wrappers with gilt decoration. Pages clean and bright. Scarce.

Famous Milprint Products Milwaukee title from cover
Milwaukee: the company 1925. Trade catalogue bound with three brass fasteners 28 x 22.5 cm. forty-two original color-printed cellophane or polyethylene food wrappers mostly for meat bacon or sausage or candy products. Brand names and designs vary greatly. Some of the samples bare the Milprint Protecto-Pack or Millprint Econo-Wrap slug. "Milprint Inc. was founded by the brothers Max T. "Popsy" Heller and William "Billy" Heller as the Milwaukee Printing Company in 1899. Beginning in 1908 they succeeded in developing printing techniques for flexible media used in commercial packaging at first glassine paper and then cellophane foil and polyethylene. The Heller brothers were able to get in at the beginnings of the mass marketing of consumer goods when individually sealed wrappings implied safety and purity. Their paper wrappings practically made the individual nickel candy bar possible and the firm dominated the candy wrapper market at an early date. Its in-house artists and designers advised clients on the most effective way to package their products. The Heller brothers also developed "Trans-Vision" a means of depicting complex objects in peel-away layers on transparent film whose most common use was probably depicting the anatomy of the human body in textbooks. William Heller sold Milprint to Philip Morris Incorporated in 1957" Hagley Museum Finding aid for the Leonard Walton collection of Milprint materials. Some leaves at the rear show signs that some samples were removed and some adhesive corner marks to leaves otherwise in remarkable condition for a collection of cellophane meat and candy wrappers with all samples bright and clean.

Somewhat scarce brush catalogue from the 1870s. Whiting started making brushes in the 1850s and by 1868 he had a stand-alone brush business that included other family members. The company expanded a great deal and was considered one of the best brush makers by the 1890s. By the time of John Whiting's death in 1892 it was probably the largest manufacturer in the United States.

Oblong 4to. Bound in an album of contemporary half calf and marbled paper boards with red leather label on upper cover stamped in gilt "Dickinson's Embossed Cards" calf shows much deterioration and corrosion although the sewing is still intact 28 specimen cards have been removed and are no longer present some minor soiling and foxing but generally vey clean and sound internally custom morocco backed folding box. Printed title in blue and red within an embossed gilt ornamental frame one printed "Notice" from the publisher dated June 1842 49 specimens of embossed cards many tinted some printed all mounted to stiff card stock; and 7 sheets of "Embossed Specimens of Printed Billets" sewn to a stiff printed card. Oblong 4to. Christian Gobrecht's Copy. With a very interesting presentation note from a previous Philadelphia owner Alfred Darrach dated 1928 affixed to the front pastedown identifying the original owner his grandfather as Christian Gobrecht 1785-1844 artist engraver embosser inventor engraver to the U.S. Mint and from 1840-1844 the 4th United States Engraver of the Mint where he was responsible for the creation of several new models and designs including the famous Seated Liberty design which appeared on a variety of American coins from 1836 through 1890. <br/>Gobrecht designed many notable medals coins and dies during his career but he also "invented a speaking doll and later a camera lucida. He also produced engravings for calico printers and dies for bookbinders. He engraved the brass dies for embossing the Morocco covers of the Boston Token from 1831 - 1836 as well as the eagle cover of the Philadelphia Token. Among the medals he engraved were the Charles Willson Peale medal the Franklin Institute medal etc ." - DAB.<br/>A remarkable specimen album in and of itself all the more so for having belonged to one of America's most important engravers. We cannot say for sure but it is entirely likely that if Gobrecht himself did not design many of the dies for this embosser he may have used the album for his own work and possibly removed the cards which are no longer present.

Its first factory operations were in the old factory building of the Grand Rapids Cabinet Company on Ottawa avenue. The business of the company at the beginning was confined to the manufacture of folding tables after a patent obtained by John Bradfield. Shortly after the manufacture of bedsteads in ash and maple was added and the plant of the company enlarged. This was continued for a year or more when the company entered largely into the manufacture of medium priced furniture for the bedroom. Later the immense and modern plant on Godfrey avenue was erected and the name was changed to the Luce Furniture Company. The factory since has been increased by approximately one-third its original floor space and the company has been generally known as one of the largest manufacturers of exclusive bedroom and dining room furniture in the world."
