This is a book from a series of publications based on manufacturers’ and builders’ catalogs.

All too often the comment is heard that the photo captions in books contain no solid information. Often the reader can gather the same captioned info by looking at the photos themselves.

This series is called Manufacturers’ Catalog Archive and it provides data and information right from the builders’ own sales and reference literature.
