Special thanks to Tim Parbs for sharing this literature from the Skidmore Corporation about their heating products. Tim writes, "One of our customers has an old Skidmore Vacuum pump from the Roaring Twenties, and it needed some attention. We are the local Skidmore rep, and we are normally able to overhaul these, but due to the age it can be difficult to get the correct parts. Not only did we get it overhauled like new, but the factory dug up this little gem of literature. Feel free to post it if you like." Thanks, Tim.
