BT Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Look at Anvils in America by Postman, and Practical Blacksmithing by M T Richardson. Both books have reprints of old equipment ads, anvils, vises, drills, forges, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
primtechsmith Posted February 27, 2007 Author Share Posted February 27, 2007 I am wondering if there is someone who has these as posters for sale...I have thought of tyring to get a paper shop to blow those up and make me some posters. But those guys are crazy on the cost!!! Peyton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skunkriv Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 "Pounding Out the Profits" by Douglas Freund is a book on power hammers and has a lot of ads. Attached is a poster from the WPA. Ran across this on the library of congress website. Lots of cool stuff there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian C. Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 I have also seen old advertisements on e-bay quite often. Sometimes they are even reasonably priced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
