    Description

    The Blacksmith & Wheelwright: June 1917
    If you owned a motor vehicle but didn’t want to give up your horses, here was the magazine for you.
    This monthly magazine, which was “devoted to the interests of blacksmiths, wheelwrights, and wagon builders,” was published for over 50 years, lasting into the 1930s.
    NY: M.T. Richardson.
    Vol. 75, no. 6.
    Pp. 633-664, many line ills. and ads for horse and automotive goods and equipment.
    Many articles on both equestrian and automotive subjects.
    How to build a useful wagon, set up and power a blacksmith shop, do machine lathing, identify hoof problems for corrective shoeing, repair a motorcycle, etc.
    Fascinating mix of topics—the increasing price of horseshoeing plus classes for automobile draftsmen, first aid for horses plus a “unique” tractor to handle hills, etc.
    Condition: paperbound, ca. 11 x 16 inches.
    Covers loose.
    Removed from an album, with punch holes in inner margins.
    Overall age wear and soil, outer pages foxed; but complete and good for reference.
