Buck & Hickman scans

[DetailSeeker]

A quick heads-up, for anyone poking around old Buck & Hickman details; there are scans of what purports to be their 1935 catalog, which is earlier than anything I can find at the IA, up at this page. Not in order, and no idea yet if it's complete, but thought I'd pass it along.

(I am cleaning up a pair of their calipers for the local vintage tools group, and I am cursing the lack of details on age. Best I can guess right now is "lower-case letters on the company name mean second half of the 20th century".)

Had a quick look, and that’s very incomplete.

The Buck and Hickman catalogue of that era was about the size of a thick phone directory! They kept everything.
