TO SALES OFFICE UANAGEHS:
We are enclosing herewith'Wholesalers' Bulletin 0-10, dated January 22, 1951, announcing to our customers Price Book ST-lD containing prices which are affective with the opening of business January 22, 1951.
You will note that 'Wholesalers are advised that these prices are approximately in line with price increases previously announced by us.
As explained in our bulletin to the Wholesalers, due to government restric tions on the use of critical metals, it is necessary to simplify our line of plumbing fixture fittings in order that we may realize the greatest possible production of the more essential items of fixture trim. Therefore, the items included in this price book represent our current line and orders are to be accepted for only the items listed therein. You will note that certain items of our current line have been modified, and while we have summarized these changes generally in Bulletin 0,-10, we wish to comment as follows on the specific changes made:
Waldorf and Colonial trims have been temporarily discontinued.
Neo-Angle Baths are now priced less the curtain rod, curtain, etc. The curtain rod with curtain is now priced separately.
Connecting pipes between bath and shower valves have been elimi nated from combination tub fittings.
Holdbacks for shower curtains have been eliminated and are not available for separate sale or with, curtain rod assemblies.
Soap dishes will no longer be supplied with any sink faucets sold separately or in conjunction with sinks.
Full S.P.S. supply pipes have been eliminated. Companion Lava tories, closet conto inat ions, and closet tanks are now priced less supply pipes. Supply pipes with flexible tuba risers are available, if desired, and are priced separately,
Blackford, Roxbury, and Kibben Vitreous China Lavatories--also the F-8385-N Drinking Fountain--will henceforth be furnished with painted wall brackets instead of Chromard.
