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. |

| Indeed. Curious if those prices would be relative in today's market |

| 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. |
