9"x 6" blue pictorial wrappers. 28pp. Black and white illustrations. Four page pink advertisement insert. An economical improvement in the methods of drying lumber is known as the "Excelsior and Chicago Lumber Dryer,'' built under the protection of sixteen letters patent by Mr. Curran & Mr. Wolff, the sole owners. The principles upon which the dryers are constructed appeal strongly to the common-sense of all who see them in operation. They dry lumber much more promptly and perfectly than the old way. Lumber kiln-dried by the Curran & Wolff process is much sought after since it is considered to be the best and only one that can be relied on. They use only the best material, employ skillful workmen, and erect dryers which are thoroughly durable and substantial. Soiling to wrappers, moderate wear to lower forecorner of front wrapper which gradually lessens through page 16, vertical crease to center of front wrapper, binding is sewn else a very nice and informative brochure.
