This stupendous factory photo album offers an essential photographic record of the vital role of road building emerging from the Good Roads Movement during the opening decades of the 20th century into the New Deal projects driven by the Roosevelt administration during the Great Depression and aspirations of creating and improving a massive Interstate Highway system. At the end of the 19th century less than 50% of roads within American cities had been paved and the very few highways and turnpikes connecting cities and towns were little more than crushed rock macadam dirt roads or even paths. By the early 1930’s there were many highways but most were in rudimentary condition forced through bottlenecks in every town along the route and all required significant upgrade to strengthen the cement and asphalt add rebar within the underlying roadbeds and special demand for the finisher machines produced by the Jaeger Machine Co. in Columbus and subsidiary Lakewood Machine Co. in Cleveland. Jaeger Machine Co. was originally founded in 1906 by Gehard Jaeger 1874-1959 and specialized in cement mixers roadbuilding equipment and later specialized concrete and cement finisher equipment for roads and airports. The 282 in-house photographs document not only the variety of cement finishers and road forms developed by Jaeger and Jaeger-Lakewood during the 1930’s into World War II but also capture street scenes road crews along with the growing demands in the West especially California. Projects such as road paving for the Bay Bridge project between San Francisco and Oakland CA by the Bates & Rogers Construction Co. of Chicago IL depict them working with Type D Jaeger-Lakewood Finishers the Type D Vibratory Machine and others laying and finishing the road deck from 1935-1937; several photos of the Type D Finisher used by the Pacific Bridge Co. on the Golden Gate Bridge road deck job from 1935-1937 featuring for both photos of the equipment as well as operating on the bridges. Also included are photos of Jaeger Finisher’s laying foundations of the Metropolitan Acqueduct Conduit in the desert East of Los Angeles CA in Mecca Riverside County operated by the Thompson-Starrett Co. firm. In addition there are photos of finishing the bottom concrete conduit for the aqueduct near San Jacinto CA by the Griffith Co. of Los Angeles in 1935. Road construction photos of the Type D Type C and later Type H finishers include those in Fort Knox KY near the Battalion Barracks in 1934; street scenes in and around Columbus OH showing roadbuilding and homes and street scenes in the background 1934-1935; road construction near Portland OR in Feb. 1935; F.P. McElwarath contracting building roads through Rockdale TX in 1934; as well as R.G. Curtis working with Type D Finisher for highway 10 miles east of Long Angles in 1936 along with photos of a Type D Finisher building roads through Minneapolis MN in Sept. 1936. Additional photos depict the Type D operating with new vibratory tube introduced in 1939 Type H Finisher working from 1940-1942 including the construction of airfields at the Muroc Bombing Airbase in Southern California in 1941-1942 now Edwards Air Force Base with the base’s main 15000-foot runway completed by December 1941 in a single pour of concrete using Jaeger finisher’s and roadbuilding equipment. The majority of the photographs are either marked with the T.H. Wolfram photographer’s imprint who appears to have been the major in-house photographer for Jaeger Machine Co. & Lakewood Engineering Co. through the 1930’s and early 1940’s. Theodore Henry Wolfram 1868-1960 began his career as a German-American chemist and photographer before the end of the 19th-Century in Columbus and would work as commercial studio through World War II. Arthur M. Prentiss 1864-1941 worked with Benjamin Gifford 1859-1936 George Weister Company and then Kiser Photo Co. until 1922 when Prentiss became a single professional photographer after acquiring Weister’s Studio and negatives. He specialized in views of the Columbia River Highway. Orville Logan Snider was a noted Southern California photographer best known for his many scenic night shots in and around Los Angeles and Hollywood as well as his movie studio photography from the 2920’s through 1950’s. Although the occasional product catalogues are held by Ohio Historical Assoc. libraries a few institutions including the Smithsonian as well as archival material held by the Columbus Metropolitan Library this cataloguer could locate no similar albums or small collections and/or archives of factory photos for Jaeger or Lakewood Engineering.

Quarto 26.5cm; black simulated leather stamped in red and gilt in brown paper slipcover; unpaginated photo-illustrated plates w/ rice paper overlays. Wear minor scuffs and soiling to boards; toning and foxing intermittent throughout text especially on overlays; some overlays creased or torn. Slipcover worn and chapped with abrasions and two large one repaired tears across front panel. Photo-illustrated pastedowns and endpapers. Very Good in Good slipcover. All text in Japanese with some obsolete/antiquated kana/kanji oriented right to left. This is a privately-issued commemorative yearbook-type photo album shashin-cho published on behalf of the Imperial Japanese Army medical forces during the Second Sino-Japanese War 1937-1945. Specifically it was produced for those who served under military physician captains/commanding officers Nobuo Isa and Tetsuo Fukaya who were stationed in or near Shanghai at the time. By July 1939 the Imperial Japanese Army was beginning to feel the impact of its own mounting casualties and costs; the Chinese Red Army would launch a major offensive later that November. While the Japanese occupation of Shanghai was notably brutal there is little evidence of violence in this album. However some photographs do depict the aftermath of battle with ruined buildings and soldiers being treated for injuries. Other subjects are mundane in nature: Staff and group portraits hospitals and other facilities physicians at work company events and ceremonies. Also includes photographs of Shanghai and a fold-out map of the Hangzhou Bay area. Apparently not cataloged in OCLC or available commercially as of November 2019. Nishimura Company unknown

An extraordinary printing & engraving firm’s factory sample catalogue for over 4000 of their camera-ready clipart advertisements for subscribing businesses following World War II through the Great Depression and the New Deal programs of President Roosevelt. This superlative archive of images traces Art Deco styles spanning nearly two decades advertising campaigns printing styles fonts and with almost not repeated images offered by American Publishing & Engraving Co. AP&E Co. to their extensive client list. In addition these engravings capture the revolutionary changes in American industry and commerce with nearly 50% devoted to the automobile industry including automobile manufacturers and dealerships accessory suppliers automobile repair public safety from bad driving the fast-growing electric motors and battery industries and more. Ford the Dodge Brothers Buick Studebaker Cadillac Plymouth Auburn Chrysler Essex Auburn-Cord DeSoto Hudson Terraplane and many others all are featured here advertising their service departments features speed and more. A significant portion also reveal the very real needs to wash the cars clean engines repaint the lacquer update the automobile tops replace batteries repair radiators and the always pressing need to maintain safety equipment and tires. Interspersed as well are automobile movers commercial body builders for trucks and commercial delivery vehicles with a significant percentage showing cylinder grinding engine rebuilding boiler repair and other very necessary secondary market needs as metal alloys and tolerances were far less durable with breakdowns an ever pressing problem for the motorist. Public safety notices reflecting the impact of the Progressive Era illustrate the dangers of the automobile with many indicating streetcars potentially hitting stalled cars which had not been repaired properly gridlock automobile accidents from ignoring traffic signals and police traffic officers as well as speeders hitting pedestrians or ignoring motorcycle police traps. Early in the sample illustrations are many reflecting the interest in building large Tudor Revival or Arts & Crafts homes installing electric lighting new furniture stylish clothes & shoes beautiful Oriental carpets and jewelry and watches for young flapper-era women.

As the AP&E Co. continued to add their sample engravings through the Great Depression not only is there a greater emphasis on repairing automobiles shoes recovering furniture and even repairing mattresses reflecting the belt tightening of the 1930’s but there are also increasing influences of more streamlined automobiles introduction of appliances such as refrigerators appearance of beer ads following the repeal of Prohibition and the fast growing radio industry. American Publishing & Engraving Co. based out of New York was one of a myriad of job printer engraving firms who emerged at the end of the 19th Century and initially specialized in publishing local histories and genealogies for historical societies by subscription typically with illustrations. Although this cataloguer could find no specific trade reference either in contemporary magazines or newspapers they appear to have operated out of the same locations as the Atlantic Publishing & Engraving Co. with some overlap and by the beginning of the 20th Century had largely dispensed with publishing local histories engraved portraits or vanity press projects. Contemporary court cases and other references indicate that they operated a subscription service for businesses advertising art to be run in magazines newspapers pulps or added to trade literature for matchbook covers business flyers etc. and by 1916-1925 were managed by Thomas W. Smith. No similar factory sample collection or published collection located in Worldcat. American Publishing & Engraving Co., J.J. Schultz & Co., 184 William St., Bookbinder, hardcover
