THE ASSOCIATED
MANUAL & CATALOG PAGE


Home E-Mail



Here is my own selection of re-printed manuals and catalogs. There are a couple of other instruction manuals available for purchase by other dealers of reproduction manuals and books, but I have intentionally not included these for purchase because I do not want to cut into their market. Plus my goal here is to provide information that is not available from any other source.
I accept payment in the form of money order, cash, personal check and Paypal. For foreign orders who do not choose to use Paypal, a Western Union International Money Order or wire transfer will work. Which ever you choose. If you decide to mail your payment, Please send to: Keith Smigle PO Box 704 Delaware, Ohio 43015 USA

In every case I have made a color copy of the original cover using card stock paper and I use higher quality paper in the pages. I think you will find these to be very nice re-prints. All purchases are covered by a unconditional money back guarantee.

One of Associated Manufacturers Co.'s mainstays of income was exports to Australia and England. This manual is a quality re-print of the instruction guide for engines sold in Great Britain. This guide dates to about 1927, is an exact copy of the 26 page original and is not just another re-hash of the American version. It is quite different.

This guide dates to about 1916 and includes information such as the natural gas hook up and diagram showing how to attach a gasoline pump with a tank outdoors for a stationary application. This is not the newer Iowa Oversize version.

This Associated catalog dates to about the fall of 1915. One of the pictures in the catalog is of the Associated engine and cream separator exhibit at the Panama Pacific International Exposition held in San Francisco, CA. The photo caption states "Make our Exhibit your Headquarters when you visit the Exposition" The fair ran from February 20th until December 4th, 1915 so I believe this catalog to be printed at that time.
Having fifty six color pages with color cover, this catalog is a must add to your Associated literature collection.
