I hope you all are checking back into this site from time to time.
Whomever is scanning this material is adding items daily. The most recent stuff appears at the top, so it is easy to check dates of new additions.

I have been in pure heaven downloading reference material on this site. ;D

Many Thanks again, JimBob.

I finly got around to doing some looking, I broke my arm filling out orders from the Enamelware/tinware catalog.   When Fex-Ex gets her I'm going to need a semi to pack the camp gear. ::)

That is a great catalog!
I would maintain that, even though it is dated 1903, it should be reliable as documentation before 1899.
Simply based on the fact that it would've taken years to build up an extensive manufacturing inventory such as that, in several different grades and price ranges. The company didn't just tool up overnight.

Looking at that catalog, Delmonico, wouldn't you agree that most of those wares were easily in production since the 19th century?
Or should it be a case of only being proof of their availability in 1903?

I will post this also in the NCOWS Members Forum for discussion.

Evidently the site link no longer exists? Kept getting a "Google 500 Internal Error" message.
