The brochures were retained by the donor's grandfather who was employed as a draftsman at Archibald Edmeston & Sons in the early part of the 20th century. The donor's father also worked as a draftsman at the firm. The donor believes that the brochures represent machinery for which his grandfather would have provided the technical drawings.
