(title 17, U. S. Code).
(WAGON CONSTRUCTION). Mann's Felly-Bending Machine. Patented August 31, 1858. [Caption title]. Folio broadside with engraved illustration of the machine at work, plus text. [Cleveland?, Ohio?: 1858]. $175.00
A handsome broadside describing the bending of stays, or fellies, for wagons, carriages, casks, or anything in "semi-circular form." In tiny type appears to be the name "Burridge Cleveland," which we speculate to be the engraver and the city. There are seven complete paragraphs of text, but trimmed close at bottom and perhaps lacking some text, although not necessarily.
