Unknown [Wheelock Iron and Salt Company Limited]
Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Wheelock Iron and Salt Company Limited
Manchester: Beresford and Havill 1865. Brochure/Pamphlet. Very Good. 8.5" by 5.5". Unknown Wheelock Iron and Salt Company Limited. A very scarce memorandum for the Wheelock Iron and Salt Company based in Cheshire with numerous clauses showing how the business is structured. Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Wheelock Iron and Salt Company Limited a very scarce pamphlet confirming legalities of the Salt and Mining company based at Wheelock near Sandbach Cheshire. In the publisher's original paper wraps. On the rear wrap are the previous owner's notes dated from 1891 concerning a court case. Little is known about the company execpt that due to the dangerous nature of mining a number of accidents were recorded but the company was likely to employ many local Cestrians. The company terminated in 1926 due to competition with American tarrifs. Despite being specific to Wheelock this is a valuable source for those wishing to learn more about the structures and legalities surrounding individual companies during the Victorian era. In the publisher's original paper wraps. Externally slight dulling with the odd faint mark and a crease through the center of the front wrap. Previous owner's ink inscription to rear wrap and to top edge of front wrap. Pastedowns are bright and clean with minor age toning and a couple of small marks. Internally firmly bound with slight crease through central leaves. Pages are bright and clean. Very Good Beresford and Havill unknown

ATTENZIONE !!: Con il termine estratto (o stralcio) intendiamo riferirci ad un fascicolo contenente un articolo, completo in se, sia che esso sia stato stampato a parte utilizzando la stessa composizione sia che provenga direttamente da una rivista. Le pagine sono indicate come "da/a", ad esempio: 229/231 significa che il testo è composto da tre pagine. Quando la rivista di provenienza non viene indicata é perché ci è sconosciuta. - !! ATTENTION !!: : NOT A BOOK : “extract” or “excerpt” means simply a few pages, original nonetheless, printed in a magazine. Pages are indicated as in "from” “to", for example: 229/231 means the text comprises three pages (229, 230 and 231). If the magazine that contained the pages is not mentioned, it is because it is unknown to us.

Industrial British Columbia 1945
152 pages. Large oblong book measuring 10" x 14.5". "Because war censorship forbade publicity there is a widespread lack of knowledge of the outstanding production job for the war effort done by British Columbia industry... Few British Columbians - certainly very few Eastern Canadians, United States business men or British Empire industrialists - realize the extent of the accomplishments and the facilities that are now available here for manufacturing of all kinds. This survey has been prepared to place on record the information that is felt should be known. It is in two parts: First, an illustrated news section graphically telling the story of leading manufacturing developments; second, a concise factual compilation of statistics giving complete authoritative basic data." - from title page.
