CONTENTS INCLUDE: In 1902 (or thereabouts) Hardinge Co. acquired the rights to the Cataract range of Precision bench lathes formerly produced by the Cataract Tool and Bicycle Company near Niagara Falls NY (hence the name of the company) and the Cataract Tool and Optical Company the latter being incorporated in Buffalo (New York). "Cataract" was to become the brand name used for many of the Hardinge precision lathes produced during the next 50 years. The background to the Hardinge acquisition involved a successful range of Cataract rifle scopes that attracted the attention of the well-known gun and tool maker J.Stevens Arms & Tool Company of Chicopee Falls Massachusetts. In 1902 Stevens bought the company and employing the skills of former Cataract manager Mr. F. L. Smith continued to market the scopes under their original name.Sportsmen Rifle TelescopesTested by the U S GovernmentLee Enfield with a 12 Diameter Military TelescopesPoints of superiorityThe Class A telescope on a Mauser a WinchesterEyepiece B tube CThe class B telescope on a StevensLongitudinal Section of the ScopeThe Challenge Special ( on a Blake Rifle)Mountings Front and RearPrice ListTermsCORNELL PUBLICATIONSWe ship worldwide within 5-8 days of payment and will cheerfully combine shipping charges for multiple purchases.
