Hello all,
I was cleaning out my file cabinet, you know that dreaded chore one
should do every once in a while. I came across a little book my
Professor gave me years ago, it was printed in the 1940’s by Nelson-
Hall Co. Publishers: “Cyclopeia of Valuable Information for Jeweler
Watchmaker Optician”. It originally cost $2.50.
Anyway this little book is full to the brim with all kinds of
that gets lost in time but is so valuable to those of us
that work with things OLD and new. It has formulas for metals,
cements, patinas, colourations and cleaning
I am Not selling my copy BUT:
I looked for it in the internet to see if it was still being
publisher but found only two old copies on Alibris.com, both are in
the UK. It is the kind of thing that should be shared with others
that work in the industry.
Has anyone else ever seen this book and the amazing bits of
it holds?
Just an FYI,
Cynthia Thomas
