I thought some of these pages were interesting. Wonder who made the hand clutch add on. Seems like there was a discussion in the past that  touched on after market hand clutches.

Lucky to have found that catalog, the ones we received in Greenville all wound up at the bottom of the Outhouse.  Slick Pages LAST.

Look at those prices
I tried to follow the science, but it was not there. I then followed the money, and that’s where I found the science.

14 or 15x28s just at $100 each when people were making $1-3/hour, my Grandfather working in a Refinery was making $1.67/hour in '46.   would be close to a 500% mark up as to today pricing where none of us are/had been making $500/hour, not even $30 for many.
