(Continued from page 10)

enlargement of a BANNER MACHINE that was mounted on a BANNER STAND.  Its crank, like the WORLD'S STAR, resembles that of my Franz & Pope pictured in Issue 4. The crank on the Franz & Pope is perfectly balanced and when released does not move.
       The catalogue consists of 46 pages of sales pitches and claims of money making opportunities. A variety of garments are illustrated and the phrase "YOU CAN DO IT" is frequently used. Each machine has a variety of cylinder sizes and a range of corresponding prices. The price of the IDEAL CABINET NO 1 was $25, the BANNER STAND $15. The IMPROVED MONEY MAKER KNITTING MACHINE complete with the IDEAL CABINET (on page 11) and all attachments was priced at $50.

       I want to thank W. Murray Clark for sharing Catalogue No. 101. Also, a big thanks to Pat Lees for pictures of her spinning wheel and her descriptions of spinning. Thank you, Tulasi Kilgore, for use of your article "How I Started Handpinning". Amelia Carlson deserves a round of applause for her blue ribbon socks and her winning smile.
       I especially appreciate permission from the Giokas family to share a page about the passing of Mr. John W. Giokas. 
       I would have preferred that this Issue was delivered on schedule. Except for its tardiness, I hope my subscribers enjoy the contents of this Issue.
