After I told Raceman about the DNR and my old 44ci. I found this list. I hope this falls in this forum still looking for some old shots but I have to get this scanner back up running. The camera is a pain to get a good pic of a old pic.

The other side, Sorry for the large format but I wanted to make sure it could be read without a problem.

Here is a Quincy price list from 1954.


When looking at these prices remember a dollar bought a lot more back then. Many people made less than 60¢ an hour and got by. In 1957 my father was a very high paid car mechanic....did automatic transmissions and complicated stuff.....brought home less than $40 a week, but that was a lot!

When you see $25 on this price list think of today's equivilent of $800 to $1000.

Some of the items and processes are obsolete and I'll go through them in a few days and explain them.

I'll take a set of rods, a set of pipes, and some hand soap....
