This rare and little known book is perhaps the most interesting
mechanism/machine design book I've seen. Once I set a search, it took
two or three years for a copy to show up on ebay. While you're doing
the interlibrary loan thing, I'd recommend trying to get hold of a
copy.

Did you bring this one up before? I remember the title from somewhere, and
also that there are two copies in New York City libraries that are easy for
me to get to.

Maybe on my semi-annual trip to the NYPL in Manhattan.

It's quite likely I've mentioned it before. It's a shame it's so hard
to find, but I think it's worth the effort.
