Item description from seller

Softcover. Wraps are of stiff, two-color printed, brown cardboard. 8 1/2 x 11 inches, 71 pages, in good condition. Illustrated throughout, in black-and-white and with technical drawings, with images of Jeffrey bucket elevators and elevator components, such as buckets and chains. Pages 4 and 5 contain a table of weights and elevator classifications for bulk materials and a table of capacities and index to elevators. Page 7 contains a table of standard centers of casing sections. Pages 8 and 9 contain technical illustrations of elevator setups for different types of tasks - one for handling slack coal, one for handling small anthracite coal, and one for sand and gravel. Pages 10 to 69 are a series of technical illustrations showing physical dimensions of different elevator setups, along with a labeled diagram giving specifications for individual parts, such as the head shaft, the sprocket and the center shaft. Below each illustration is a small table giving other specifications, such as capacity per hour, size of bucket, type of chain and horsepower. Interspersed with these drawings are black-and-white photographs of the Jeffrey standard bucket elevator being put to use. Page 70 gives instructions for constructing your own wooden elevator casing. Page 71 has tables that give physical dimensions of cast iron elevator boots and adjustable take-up boxes that the company also manufactures.

Normal shelfwear and minor wear to other edges and corners. Front cover contains ink stamp with date (January 30, 1919) and indication that it came from a catalogue library. Some pencil markings at top right corner of front paper, also from the catalogue library. Title page contains identical stamp to the one on the front cover; pages are otherwise clean and unmarked. Pages have toned lightly and evenly. The Jeffrey Mfg. Co., a coal mining equipment manufacturer, is based in Columbus, Ohio. $40.…

Store description

We're at 805 Caroline Street, in the heart of Fredericksburg's historic district. Open Monday to Saturday 10-6; and Sunday 12-5. In warmer months we stay open until 9 most nights, but you might want to call ahead. (540) 373-6148 Shipping rates are for Media Mail, in a padded envelope - WE DO NOT ADD TRACKING UNLESS THE CUSTOMER REQUESTS IT AND PAYS FOR IT - we have been selling books online for more than 20 years & find that the USPO delivers 99.99% of packages quickly and safely, without any need for a tracking number. We trust them & we hope you will too. If you need tracking, please consider PRIORITY SHIPPING. We ship orders valued at more than $50 in a box, at no additional charge. Priority mailing is for a Flat-Rate envelope, with tracking included. If the book does not fit into a flat rate envelope, we will likely need to request extra shipping costs from you, in order to put it in a box. We only charge the actual amount of shipping, so we hope you'll understand that it's just a matter of getting the book to you without taking a loss on it -- shipping is a service we happily offer without a 'handling' charge.... but we can't afford to charge you less than the cost of the stamps!…
