International Textbook Company, Published 1937. Hardcover, v, 66, 63, 36 pp.; 20 cm; illustrated with black-and-white line engravings throughout, including full-page and double-page plates. In Very Good condition, no dust jacket. Black pebble-grained cloth, blind-stamped title panel and International Textbook Company monogram on front cover, blind-stamped publisher's panel at foot, gilt lettering on spine bright, series number at foot of spine rubbed. Mild shelf and edge wear. Binding tight. Green and cream marbled endpapers, blue-stained page edges. Small tan spot at head of the double-page plate. Otherwise unmarked.Volume 181B in the bound series issued by International Textbook Company, the publishing arm of the International Correspondence Schools of Scranton, Pennsylvania. ICS grew out of a mine-safety question-and-answer column run by Thomas J. Foster in the Colliery Engineer and Metal Miner and enrolled its first class of 500 miners in 1891; cumulative enrollment reached four million by 1930, making it the most successful correspondence school in American history. The bound volumes gathered the loose serial-numbered Instruction Papers into permanent form, this one comprising Shaper and Slotter Work (Serial 2222, Edition 1), Boring-Mill Work, and Working Chilled Iron. Three trades in one volume: the shaper and the slotter, the short-stroke machines that cut flat, angular and irregular surfaces and the keyways and internal work a planer could not reach, then vertical and horizontal boring mills including the turret-head vertical mill and the cylinder mills of the engine shops, and finally the specialized business of turning, grinding, planing and drilling chilled iron, work that defeated ordinary tool steel and drove the shift to high-speed steel. The double-page plate in the first section is signed at foot BB 181B 2222 for the publisher's Bluebook series. A notice on the copyright page explains the publisher's practice of periodic review, each section carrying an edition date recording the year it was last examined and passed as sound; the first two sections here are marked 1937 over copyrights of 1934 and 1927, and Working Chilled Iron carries its 1915 copyright.Contents: Shaper and Slotter Work: Shapers; Construction and Operation; Crank-Driven Shaper; Geared Shaper; Traveling-Head Shaper; Draw-Cut Shaper; Cutting Tools and Speeds; Cutting Tools; Cutting Speeds; Shaper Equipment; Shaper Operations; Taking Cuts; Shaper Attachments; Slotters; Construction of Slotters; Slotter Operation; Keyway for Cutters; Broaching.
