Item description from seller

Thick 4to. 9.25 x 11.5 x 2.75 in. [15 leaves (unnumbered).], printed on yellow-tinted paper, w/ plasticized thumb tabs at fore-edge margin, with 60 original photographs preserved in original mylar sleeves as issued, many w/ printed captions tipped-in on recto, occasional curling and bowing to old mylar. Black pebbled cloth post-binder, ornamental gilt lettering stamped on front cover, rounded corners (minor wear to corners, minor chipping head & foot of spine, minor bumping), still a VG copy. First edition of this very scarce salesman sample photo catalogue detailing the rebuild and machining services automobiles and trucks offered by the Motor Mercantile Co. following World War II. The firm had developed many of their machining and reconditioned parts methods to maintain civilian and military automobiles during wartime rationing. The album opens with a photo of the historic Strevell-Paterson Hardware Co. which was historically located at 126-128 SW Temple in Salt Lake, followed by photo of the new building for Strevell-Paterson Finance Co. housing the Motor Mercantile Co. after the War. In addition, images of the parts counter, machine shop, and sales office are shown. Each section includes series photos showing the reconditioning of parts, such as reconditioning crank shafts; meticulously refacing and reconditioning engine valves; boring and honing engine cylinders; powder coating machined and reconditioned parts, and showing the necessary lathe work. Also detailed are reconditioning connecting rods, pistons, pins, broken studs on engine blocks, brake service, and even manufacturing windshields. Originally founded in 1918 by A.D. McMullen, a former Stevell-Paterson sales manager, the company operated at 115-117 SW Temple for years, and within a few years they appear as a subsidiary of Strevell-Paterson Hardware Co., with their logo painted on the side of the historic building in the first photograph. Rogers (1878-1966) was longtime sales manager who had begun working for Strevell-Paterson as a traveling salesman before World War I. No copies located in Worldcat.
