This new publication, written by Verne W. Kindschi and available
just in time for the Great Fuller &. Johnson Rally in Baraboo,
Wisconsin August 21-23, 1992, boasts over 140 pages of information
and photographs about all aspects of the machinery produced by
F&J.
Kindschi, a leading collector of Fuller &. Johnson engines,
data, and miscellanea, has put together a great deal of information
in a very orderly manner. He starts the book with biographies of
company founders Morris E. Fuller and John A. Johnson, details the
formation of their partnership, and proceeds through several
chapters devoted to the various models of machinery which the
company manufactured.
Engine models having chapters devoted to them include
oil-cooled, vertical hopper-cooled, double efficiency,
‘People’s Priced’, Models N, K, NA, NB, NC, ND, KA, and
NK, as well as farm pump, light plant, and radiator-cooled
engines.
Each chapter is enhanced by clear, well-labeled black-and-white
photos, over 250 in all.
In addition to the company history and product line description,
Kindschi has also included a final chapter titled ‘Resources
for the Collector.’ This chapter includes important information
regarding serial numbers, paint colors, printed resources such as
decals and owners and parts manuals presently available, and major
parts sources for the collector restoring a Fuller & Johnson
engine.
Several pages are left open at the end of the book, where the
collector can record his own notes.
