Add to basketItem description from seller
A worn but sturdy copy with rubbing to the boards. The interior is clean and unmarked. 160 pages. 3.75" x 6.5". Here’s a handy, fit-in-your-pocket quick reference guide for determining the price of common goods from oats, wheat, and corn to cotton, coal, hogs, and sheep. Originally published in 1869 by Christian Ropp (1812–1896), the book provides useful times tables for tradesmen, who may not have been quick with arithmetic. Additional tables help calculate wages and interest or the capacity of wagon beds. Our copy is the 1906 printing and a surprisingly revealing look at life in the early 20th century, though the type is painfully small. .
