W. & F. J. Barnes Price List and Descriptive Catalogue of Barnes Foot, Hand and Steam Power Machinery, Rockford, Illinois. c1885, This poor little catalog went astray during one of the site rebuilds. Back where it belongs, a fine catalog of the esteemed W F & J Barnes Company, makers of the very best in hand and foot powered machinery. If I had room, and the cash reserves, I would collect them.

Courtesy Loomis International, servicing the oil & gas industries for over 50 years. Images sent by Bryce Johnson. Featured is a Barnes flat belt drive drill press with an original cast frame motor. Still in excellent working condition, which is more than you can say for that little Delta Drill Press in my basement.
