Description

"UNITED STATES PLYWOOD COMPANY DEALERS' PRICE LIST CATALOG" Color: Black; Green A dealer's price list catalog, issued by the United States Plywood Company, 1927. The 31st catalog from the wood products manufacturer has a faux leather paper cover in dark green with black lettering on the front giving the title, number, effective date and company logo with its name, street address and New York address. The first of the 77-page artifact gives information on products and sales terms. On the second page is information concerning goods damaged in transit; crating charges; broken bundles and crates and other items. Among the product offerings are windows; window and door frames; door jambs; mouldings; doors of all kinds; built-in furnishings, such as cupboards, cabinets, tables and ironing boards; breakfast furniture; stiles and riles; plywood panels; and stair parts. Dimensions of products; opening measurements for windows and doors; and many black and white drawings, as well as prices accompany product listings. At the end is an index and door and moulding lists. Although pages 37-44 were loose when the object was received, the staples were removed and thread used to bind the loose pages back with the rest of the pages. There are some dented corners and slight wear on the cover, but the artifact is otherwise in good condition.
