Thomas F. Googerty 
Drop-Forgings – Tenth Edition – July 1901 

This book contains a catalogue of drop-forged tools and items offered by J. H. Williams & CO in 1901. The items in the catalogue range from spanners and wrenches to hooks, sockets, levers, flanges, etc. This volume will appeal to collectors of vintage forging and blacksmithing literature and would make for fantastic addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: ‘Additions’, ‘Air Valves’, ‘Ammonia Union Forgings’, ‘Automobile Parts’, ‘Connecting Rods’, ‘Crank Shafts’, ‘Igniter Levers’, ‘Rod Ends’, ‘Steering Gear’, ‘Starting Levers’, ‘Valve Stems’, ‘Chain Pipe Wrenches, Vulcan’, ‘Changes’, ‘Codes’, ‘Collars, Shafting’, ‘Crank Handles’, ‘Crank Shafts’, et cetera. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on blacksmithing. First published in 1901.
