Brackett and Shuff Ledger, 1844-1846
1 volume (0.1 linear ft.)
Collection number: MS 487 bd
Abstract:
The firm of Brackett and Shuff manufactured moldings, doors, and sashes in Lowell, Massachusetts, during the 1840s.
This slender ledger includes sparse accounts (fewer than 30p.) of millwork done by Brackett and Shuff, documenting the manufacture of moldings, doors, and sashes. Crudely kept and only partly filled out, it includes some records of setting up machinery, including tempering plane irons and truing shoulder saws. Terms of Access and Use: The collection is open for research. Special Collections and University Archives, W.E.B. Du Bois Library, University of Massachusetts Amherst
