Regarding the Potter catalogs, is there information about the lead hardness testing device? Perhaps an illustration?
Thanks for any response.

Only thing I could find is:
"Lead Tester.................7 Ibs. $18.50"

Abunaitoo,

Can you tell me the dates on the two center Potter pamphlets? I have a number of the pamphlets but I would like to have as many as possible to keep track of changes in prices or equipment offered. Thanks

PS: The second pamphlet in from the left has a sketch of a Simplex Press. Only 30 of those were ever made....and I can account for only one of them which is owned by the Potter family!

I would very much like copies of the Potter stuff, and the Pacific

I would be interested in the two Pacific catalogs. Early Pacific lit is hard to find. PDF's are fine.
