Book Co. There were six libraries Mining (9 volumes), Power plant (8
volumes), Machine Shop(9 volumes, Coal mining & Engineering (8 volumes),

This set I have are all signed by Gus or Luis E. Hall 1921
I can not make out the first name might be Gus or Luis.
Is there any value for this set? Incidentally Machine shop set lists in the
front of the book for $20.

Hi.
Was looking for a list of all the volumes in the old ( Mcgraw-Hill )
"Machine Shop Library"/ "Library of machine shop practice" series,
from some where around 1910 forward.

I only remember the "Tool and Die" volume and the "Jigs and
Fixtures" volume, both of which I believe were by Fred Colvin.

I know there were about 10-12 books in the set though. Does anyone
know all the voilumes?

I tried using the library of congress catalog, but it doesn;t seem to
support listing the volumes within the series (or mabey I just dont
know how to use the system).

TIA
