Just For You
This trade catalog was published by Geneva Kitchens of Geneva, Illinois. It features designs and color options for the all-steel kitchens of the 1950s. Geneva Kitchens, like many post WWII companies, promoted the all-metal kitchen as efficient, safe, easy to maintain, and sanitary while being fashionably colorful, streamlined, and modern. This beautifully designed catalog also documents the style and taste of the domestic interior of the 1950s, and provides a direct window into the Illinoisan home-life and décor of the mid-20th century.
Podrovnoe Opisanīe Parovoĭ Mashiny
An early Russian technical book describing an atmospheric steam engine for pumping water. The title indicates that it is based upon the one devised by the Englishman T. Savery. Thomas Savery (1650?-1715), the English military engineer, patented the first commercially successful atmospheric steam engine in 1698. This book was published by the Army Technical Academy. Following the Napoleonic Wars, the Russian Army continued to play a role in encouraging technical innovations (as well as in harboring political liberals).
