Author	Topic: Towle's Ben Franklin pattern
wev Moderator Posts: 4121 Registered: Apr 99	posted 06-07-2009 05:11 PM I was cleaning up the shelves and ran across this 1905 Towle brochure Along with a biography of the old rascal, there is a complete showing of the pieces produced. For those interested in seeing all various implements, I made up a pdf file of the pages: Towle Benjamin Franklin flatware It is 3.8 megs in size, so may take a bit to open. Anyone collecting/using this pattern? IP: Logged

Scott Martin Forum Master Posts: 11520 Registered: Apr 93	posted 06-07-2009 06:04 PM Thanks WEV. FYI, I couldn't open the PDF in Acrobat standard 5.0. It reports "File Damaged". I could open the PDF with Acrobat Standard 7.0.9. IP: Logged
wev Moderator Posts: 4121 Registered: Apr 99	posted 06-07-2009 06:15 PM Thanks, Scott -- I re-optimized the file to be compatible back to v 4.0, so give it another try. IP: Logged
