Pair of World War Two vintage technical books on industrial tool and fixture design and manufacturing. These books are heavily illustrated with tons of great photos and drawings.

There is: Tool Design by Charles Cole, copyright 1941 (this is a 1947 printing) with 498 pages including 425 illustrations; Tool Making by Charles Cole, copyright 1939 (this is a 1944 edition) with 413 pages including tons of illustrations, technical drawings and photographs of industrial machine tools.

These are in nice vintage condition. Tool Design does have a name on the inside of the front cover and Tool Making has some minor spotting to some of the pages.
