1918réf. 62523Peoria IL: Avery Company Manufacturers 1918. 4to. 24 pp unpaginated. printed in red gray & black throughout. Photo text illustrations throughout decorative borders illustrations. Self-printed colour-illustrated softcovers cover art of Avery road tractors and scrapers front & back minor edgewear creasing minor wear & dustsoiling w/ tiny closed tears at spine still VG- copy. First edition of this uncommon catalogue of equipment which played a crucial role in road building driven by the Good Roads Movement during the opening decades of the 20th century. At the end of the 19th century less than 50% of roads within American cities were paved and the very few highways and turnpikes connecting cities and towns were little more than crushed rock macadam dirt roads or even paths. Sidewalks were nearly unknown and unlike Europe road construction was not primarily managed by national or local governments. Although founded in the 1880s by bicycling enthusiasts the Good Roads Movement at the beginning of the 20th century began to be driven largely by advocates of the automobile. This catalogue illustrates Avery road tractors graders scarifiers blades drag scrapers and more building roads in Texas Oklahoma Idaho Nebraska Kansas Indiana and more. The Avery company was founded initially in Galesburg IL following the Civil War by Robert and John Avery with Robert as the ever-intrepid inventor and machinist one of whose earliest inventions was the riding cultivator. By 1883 and teamed up with his brother Cyrus the company proved successful and after 1892 became well-known for their internal combustion engine equipment. By 1920 the company led by Bartholomew employed 4000 people and pioneered motor cultivators and road-building equipment but was hit by the post-World War I depression about the time this catalogue was issued and although the company attempted to reorganize and laid off 90% of its workforce it failed by 1923 and was renamed the Avery Power Machinery Co. The company limped through the Great Depression and closed finally in World War II. No copies in Worldcat; See: Mowitz The Once-Great Tractor Innovator Lost to Time Successful Farming Nov. 20 2024.
