First editions thus of these marvelous colour lithograph advertising and education posters detailing the Gold Medal Flour Milling process by the Washburn-Crosby Co. mills during the Progressive Era. Washburn-Crosby Co. had been founded in the 19th-Century and after inventing the middlings purifier for producing high quality flour from the Spring wheat grown in Minnesota and the Dakotas quickly expanded. Washburn-Crosby also introduced the gradual reduction process through pulverizing porcelain chilled iron or steel rollers to gradually pulverize the purified middlings and integrate the gluten with starch and finally they installed the exhaust system of William de la Barre to reduce the risk of explostions. A smaller version of this cutaway design of a Washburn-Crosby flour mill first appeared in the 1915 Wheat & Flour Primer advertising their Gold Medal Flour and this one was issued just a few hours later in a larger format detailing how the consumer could trust the purity of Gold Medal Flour. The second cutaway poster vividly illustrates the ideal Spring wheat kernel used by the company and details the various layers and their terminology. Edwards & Deutsch Lithographing Co. was first founded in 1896 and continued to be one of Chicago’s most successful poster and packaging colour lithography printers through the 1920’s.

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.
