I just stumbled across this...

Pardon Our Interruption...

 

[swestoyz]

Ummmmm.... wow.

 

[hippiedoll]

oh double-wow!!

those pictures are really cool to look at (back when america was more of a manufacturing country). it's a shame that all the manufacturing jobs are being sent over to seas to china & other countries. sure wish manufacturing plants would open back up again, here in the united states. than maybe we could look forward to getting some good quality made products being made & offered once again!!!

why doesn't the rest of the country & our leaders realize this???

;o/

Not giving those away, I see....

 

[scoots]

I hope there's more that just pictures of the sales staf

Most of the pictures look like salesmen parties, and if they were just Elks, you couldn't give them away.

I hope there's something substantial in that pile like styling or engineering notes or pricing strategies.

when America had the advantages...oh, and if you note, the Dutch Oven Club Charter Member...wears an apron that says, "Bought(?) it, Get It, Forget It, Leave it".

I'm sure they framed and hung in their dens. Ok, they used for changing oil.
