About This Item
Springfield, IL: Illinois Watch Company, 1923. Hardcover. Very Good. A solid, very presentable copy of this uncommon 1923 catalogue issued by the Illinois Watch Company. Tight and VG- to VG in its bevelled, light-green boards, with wear at the spine ends and clear tape neatly applied along the spine as reinforcement. Quarto, dozens of charts and diagrams and detailed lists of the most esoteric and obscure parts that make up the state-of-the-art watch of 1923. A wonderful piece of Americana.
