NP: np, nd (ca.1920's). Long, narrow broadside printed in blue and black, 59 3/4 x 10 inches, the text and illustrations enclosed within a wide blue border, showing the ten steps involved in making the "Stahot Electric Iron," starting with a soapstone block. An older model of the "Stahot" iron was produced by the Electrical Specialties Co. of Lansing, Michigan, in 1915; by 1920, the Steatite Electric Products Corp., of Yorktown Heights, New York, had apparently acquired the rights to it and remodeled the iron to resemble the one in this ad. The iron had an attractive blue handle and a detachable cord. Apparently not recorded on OCLC. A few closed tears, some soiling to one panel, but a very good example. Creased from folding. (#7185).
