content: Mining Equipment and Processing Companies contains material from companies and individuals engaged in the production and development of equipment for mining, as well as techniques for processing the extracted material. The majority of the materials date from circa 1880-1905. Most of the companies represented are American. The material is, as in series one, largely of a promotional nature: advertising brochures, fliers, and handouts for specific types of machinery or equipment; reports on new chemical processing techniques. There are also selected pieces of correspondence related to equipment orders, as well as tool catalogs and blank order forms. The material is arranged in alphabetical order by company name.
