Description: Buy it from the author of Turner Manufacturing Company Silk Screens and More... Are you a collector of Turner Manufacturing Company (TMC) products or the seller of TMC goods? Did you ever wonder who made the items marked with a “Turner” copyright, as I did for many years? This book provides historical documentation of generations of Turner family members and employees who made TMC the largest picture frame manufacturer in America. Specifically addressed are silk screen prints and the manufacturing process for pictures, frames, mirrors, and more. I have collected TMC silk screens and other TMC products for over four decades and have done extra research to gain a superior knowledge of August Turner’s journey, his company, and processes. My knowledge came from research on items listed in newspapers, reports from the State of Illinois, state file requests, interviews with family members and factory workers, and documentation from August Turner himself. You’ll see fine examples of silk screens and beautiful frames while learning such terms as peel off or rabbet and how those terms are used in the manufacturing of products and mirroring methods. TMC has a rich history that includes August Turner’s fantastic personal journey from Russia, the creation of the company, and the family that kept the company going for almost a century through wars, the Great Depression, and the industrial and computer revolutions until being closed by National Multifoods Corporation in 1982. So come along and find out what is really behind the Turner label. Buy it on-line for $45.00 rather than the $49.99 price tag. Shipping and handling will be a flat fee of $10.00 which includes UPSP Media deliver that takes 2 to 8 business days. This will be the only shipping offered. Enjoy the book. Patrick
