I picked up this publication at the recent Indiana telephone show. I think it will look nice framed. The guy selling them had a bunch of different issues. Kicking myself for not buying more. Very informative articles. This issue is dated March 1929. The cover story is about refurbishing telephones at the WECO Hawthorn plant in Illinois. The cover drawing and the article photo show a workman at the sand blasting machine. Notice on the cover the candlesticks on the right waiting for stripping and the candlesticks on the left already sand blasted.
