In response to Don Teach's question about nickelodeon drawings, I
wondered if he has or knows about the Vestal Press Technical Series.

I don't know if they are still available under the new management. I
believe that I have the whole set but am not sure; after I bought
everything that they relating to my collection I seemed to stop getting
their catalog.

I have the following drawing sets:

Technical Series No. 1, Coinola X roll frame for "O" rolls,
By Harvey N. Roehl.

Technical Series No. 2, The Seeburg Rewind-Replay Gear Shifter
(Pneumatic Lock and Cancel Type), By Michael L. Kitner.

By David Saul.

Most of the series are fold-out blueprint size drawings, some with text
and photos.  If they are available for reprint they might make a good
start for Don's set.
