Item description from seller

Original spiral-bound with maroon paper covers, with silver lettering and decoration on cover. Interior is illustrated mostly in black and white over yellow, with one color frontispiece of the original Fellows spur and helical gear shaper cutter, reproduced from a Kodachrome negative. Gears and cutters are featured first, followed by gear shapers, burnishers, and other machinery. Fellows Gear Shaper Company is located in Vermont's Precision Valley, and was co-founded by Edwin R. Fellows (1865-1945), an American inventor and entrepreneur from Torrington, Connecticut who designed and built a new type of gear shaper in 1896. The company became one of the leading firms in the gear-cutting segment of the machine tool industry. Fellows' machines made a vital contribution to the mass production of effective and reliable gear transmissions for the nascent automotive industry. By the conclusion of World War II, Fellows Gear Shaper Company machines were in defense contractor plants, manufacturing geared components for aircraft engines, tanks, instruments, cameras, fuses and other war-time materiel. Spiral-bound paperback, very good condition. 64 pages, horizontal quarto.
