First editions thus of these exceedingly scarce General Electric sales catalogues containing price lists sales brochures sales information and technical instructions for salesmen to retail appliance department stores hardware stores and electrical utilities across America detailing to their potential customers the home and commercial refrigerator possibilities for better preserving foodstuffs and providing cool water and ice cream. General Electric during the opening years of the Great Depression launched themselves to the top of the fast expanding refrigeration and electrification movement as they transitioned to their Monitor Top refrigerator as well as introducing their “Thermocraft” insulation material which significantly reduced weight per cubic foot and allowed them to easily out-compete their main competitors including Westinghouse and Maytag. These Monitor-top refrigerator units were marketed widely with an ad campaign emphasizing the sanitary white enamel finish on steel that “simplifies housekeeping and safeguards health” for the family built as one air-tight units for both home and commercial uses operating relatively quitely and protecting the food inside from unwanted bacteria and decay. The name Monitor-Top derives from the refrigeration unit’s resemblance to the turret on the Civil War battleship the USS Monitor and would become the bestselling refrigerator over the next decade. The Salesman’s Handbook emphasizes how the interest on the money invested in an electric refrigerator is less than the average price paid by a consumer for ice deliveries for antiquated “Iceboxes” as well as emphasizing just how much food can be stored in them ice made inside the units and how invaluable they are for keeping healthy milk and dairy products at the proper temperatures.

James Ashley. Who at the London Punch House on Ludgatehill 1731 First Reduc'd the Price of PUNCH & rais'd its Reputation

ref. 267136London: Thomas Worlidge n.d. ca mid-18th century. Engraved portrait of James Ashley in cartouche flanked by ornate pedestals supporting two punch bowls with engraved caption as above by Thomas Worlidge. 1 vols. 7-9/16 x 5-3/4 in. A strong impression laid down light creases from prior folding small pin hole near engraved caption. Engraved portrait of James Ashley in cartouche flanked by ornate pedestals supporting two punch bowls with engraved caption as above by Thomas Worlidge. 1 vols. 7-9/16 x 5-3/4 in. Scarce trade card of James Ashley proprietor of the London Coffee House and Punch-House 1731-1776 who was "London's leading purveyor of Punch in the eighteenth century" Wondrich Punch p. 65 and "the world's first celebrity mixologist the first man to become famous for compounding and selling a mixed drink" ibid p. 172. Ashley a former cheese merchant opened his Punch-House in 1731 in Ludgatehill London. Extensive advertising in London papers as well as the distinct ornate pedestals surmounted by iron punch bowls which flanked its entrance made the London Punch-House one of the most well-known drinking establishments in the city. Clientele included Hogarth Boswell Oliver Goldsmith and Benjamin Franklin. A large sign outside of the Punch-House echoes the caption on this trade card "Pro bono publico. James Ashley in 1731 first reduced the price of punch raised its reputation and brought it into universal esteem." Ashley did indeed reduce the price of punch - from 8 shillings for punch made from a quart of arrack to 6 shillings - but his great innovation was to offer punch in smaller portions in servings as small as two ounces. These small servings made to order for the customer were the precursor to the modern cocktail. This trade card is engraved by Ashley's friend Thomas Worlidge 1700-1766 dubbed "the English Rembrandt" who also engraved portraits of Ashley's wife and one Mrs. Graywood the bar-keep at the London Punch-House.
