  Never see a photo of him before, but one of his steam hammers was installed in Eccles, Manchester UK and was featured on the Eccles Grammar School Badge, worn on blazers for many years. His hands look as though they've seen hard graft. I notice that he's holding dividers, but any idea what the book is?
