This is a 1948 color advertising pamphlet for Duo-Therm Automatic Fuel Oil Water Heaters, made by the Motor Wheel Corporation of Lansing, Michigan.
It is in good shape with no rips or tears, as the listing says, and two punched holes sit along the center fold.
The cover promises Automatic Hot Water Galore without Gas or Electric connections, and inside you get the Hot Water Galore, an Endless Store spread, the Duo-Therm Fuel Oil Models pages, the Model 40 and Model 50 heaters, and the Only Duo-Therm Gives You All these Advantages spread with cutaway drawings. Color drawings and quick facts cover every model offered in 1948.

Every listing spells it out and shows it in photos. Chips, hairlines, crazing, worn plating, old repairs. If I did not mention it, it is not there.
Yes. Every photo is the actual piece, taken by me. When it sells, it is gone.
I note maker, mark, era, and measurements when I can confirm them, and say so plainly when I cannot. Unmarked pieces get dated by what the piece itself shows.
I process order within 2 business days, wrapped and boxed so it arrives the way it left here. Don't forget, free shipping on orders $35 and up.
