Notes
Content: Written on border: "1891" Printed on border: "Blocking. Fig. 2303 represents the Eickemeyer hand hat-blocking machine, which operates as follows: a hat previously stretched on the tip, side-crown, and brim is clamped on the outer edge and expanded to the desired size. Thirty-six clamping tongs are pivoted to the top plate, in an oval line around the block, and these are attached to the foot-lever so as to move outward from the centre when the lever is depressed." Includes additional text.
