Lot Consists of a Very Scarce, Original, Late 1950's - 1960 Bathroom Fixtures and Plumbing Parts Catalog from the Pittsburgh, PA based Company: The Murray Corporatrion of America: Eljer PlumbingWare Division.

Eljer, Inc. was founded in February of 1904 by Raymond ELmer Crane and his cousin, Oscar Jerome Backus, from whose middle names "ELJER" was coined. Eljer's original location was Oakland, California, where flush valves were manufactured. Shortly thereafter, a move was made to Newark, New Jersey, where the firm manufactured a diaphragm type flush valve with mediocre success. In 1914, the company was purchased by investors to form the National Sanitary Company. By 1922 the floor space has been increased to 65,000 square feet. In 1922 and again in 1928, the foundry was completely destroyed by fire, but rebuilt with new equipment. In 1929, the Eljer Company purchased the majority of the stock and the Salem plant became Eljer Plumbingware Enamelware Division. During World War II, the plant went into war production. The plant produced castings for diesel engines, plumbing fixtures for war housing, fabricated heavy machinery for war use, produced tool castings and fabricated 1,000 lb. G.P. aerial bombs. In 1956 a second plant was built adjacent to the original plant, greatly increasing the production capacity of vitreous china products.

Book is loaded with both Color and Black & White images of the "then" current and new styles and types of fittings for use in Commercial and Residential Applications. Catalog also has mechanical spec drawings, cut-aways, rough-ins and parts diagrams with stock numbers and sizing for lots of the items offered and piping specifications. Also Included is an Original 36 Page Consumer Prices List. Book is a super piece of restoration reference for anyone involved or interested in vintage bath fixtures. See pics for more details.
