  • So cool to visit a world that once was. Check out the solid rubber tires on the delivery trucks. And notice that the laboratory glassware is graduated in millilitres and degrees Celsius.

    And the refining of crude oil seems to have been fairly well sorted out in 1927... we've made incremental improvements since then.

    Thanks for uploading this treasure !

  • thanks a lot again...excellent and very useful!!!!
