To keep my MM instruments running and my Linotype machine in operation,
I have gotten leather belting from:
California Belting Company
Manufacturers and Distributors
9829 Alpaca Street
South El Monte, California 91733 USA
Tel (818) 444-8155 ; Fax (818) 444-8613
They carry 1/4-inch Round Leather Belting for US$1.38 per foot. They
sell by the 100-foot roll or by the foot. They carry flat leather
transmission belting, solid round leather belting 1/8, 1/4, 3/8 inch,
and others. They also carry flat and round leather belting hooks.
Mr. John C. Olivas will send two information sheets. A SASE [self-
addressed stamped envelope] would be nice.

[ Jack, what on earth are you doing with a Linotype machine -- setting
[ type for a newspaper?!! The leather belt drives the screw which
[ returns the matrices to the magazine, right? And what's the name of
[ the gremlin who haunts the composing room? -- Robbie
