208769 "Peter Evans" <peterrevans@o...> 2010‑10‑04 RE: weekend trash/treasures
Book Depository and Betterworld both have the title available, useful
for international buyers because of free/cheap postage respectively. I
suspect most of the pages are the 252 patent diagrams and info; there
are only photographs of 60 tools. Full marks to Fredrich to pulling it
all together and going to the expense of publishing his research.

This is the tome Cowtown was talking about. Its actually 440 pages, but
39 pages of patents

Nobody on librarything has it listed. The publisher is authorhouse,
which I believe is a self publishing site. Gary Roberts could probably
add more info to those areas
