Our reproduction of the 1895 Jacob Price Field
Locomotive catalog continues, with pages 18 and 19 of the original
catalog.
Regarding warranty information, it’s interesting to note that no
specific action or compensation is suggested in the event a Jacob
Price engine fails to perform as promised. It would be interesting
to know how the factory responded to performance issues. The
remainder of the section focuses on preparation for operating an
engine, with particular emphasis on oiling.
