In May 1878, the Illinois Springfield Watch Company distributed this price list catalog, featuring their full line of 18-Size and new 8-Size Ladies’ watches. Due to financial strains, the company had recently reorganized, and the future was uncertain. The back cover includes an exceptional illustration of Otis Hoyt’s stem-setting mechanism. At the time of publication, the patent for his design was still pending. (Courtesy of the Harvard University Library)
