Everything in this catalog is interesting but I found the gun section particularly interesting. The start around page 991. You can download the whole thing.

Look at page 93. Measuring tapes.

 

Now, this has to be a wholesale place. Buy stuff to sell in your store  And here's a box of a dozen measuring tapes. $4. And the MSRP is marked on the box. 25¢.

 

I buy this box of twelve for $4, sell all of them in my store for 25¢ each. Gross sales $3. Net loss $1. They have two different brands of 25¢ tapes for $4 a dozen, and one of smaller, 10¢ tapes, for $1.60 a dozen.

 

That one's a better deal. You only lose 60¢ per case with them, instead of a dollar, like with the bigger ones. :o:D

Alpo, they was selling those to people that flunked math.

I'll bet a lot of cowboys back then were wishing they could've just downloaded that catalog...

I wish I could today.

Alpo's gone into the mercantile bizness?

Between Buryin' is Us and Alpo's Fine Furniture, I ain't got time to run a general store.

Wow...!  Marble's compasses (pg 990) cost $8 to $27 per dozen... and a Belgian Laminated Steel Shot Gun could be had for $11.25~!  :rolleyes:

The most likely reason it costs $4.00 is that you are paying for the deluxe gold embossed display case as well as the tape measures.

On page 1022 you can purchase a Maxim Silencer for only $5.00. Can be installed by anyone on any .22 Also available direct from the factory for larger calibers.

The following pages have reloading tools and supplies.

Love the comment on the Savage 1899 in .30-30; “It will kill anything.”

Page 1075, the No. 0 Bench Closer (roll crimper). $7.20 per dozen = 60 cents each!!

I bought the exact same tool from a pard on the wire at least 20 years ago and I think I paid about $25-30. Damn, what a rip off!
