Commercial catalog collection, 1870s-2000s
527 items
This collection of Michigan-based trade catalogs dates from the 1870s and continues to the present. The collection is arranged alphabetically by broad product classification, for example agricultural machinery, furniture, etc. Within each category, the catalogs have been arranged alphabetically by the name of the company, and then chronologically. The researcher should note that there is a separate finding aid for the library's collection of commercial catalogs for automobiles and motor trucks.
