VISUAL DESCRIPTION
The image is a black and white vintage advertisement for The Aircraft Supplies Co. Ltd. , emphasizing their capability to supply "EVERY PART FOR AIRCRAFT FROM A SPLIT PIN TO A COMPLETE UNIT!" The ad targets Admiralty and War Office contracts, suggesting it dates back to a time when military aviation procurement was prominent, possibly during one of the World Wars. On the left side of the ad, there's an illustration depicting an aircraft manufacturing scene with workers engaged in various tasks related to aircraft assembly or parts production. Above this illustration is text that reads "DEPARTMENTS, " listing various components such as Aeroplanes & Seaplanes, Hydroplanes & Flying Boats, Engines & Spares, Propellers & Accessories, Instruments & Wireless Equipment. To the right of this list are two notices titled "IMPORTANT NOTICE" which appear to be addressing issues relevant at the time regarding deliveries and orders due to high demand or other constraints. In the center-right portion of the advertisement is information about "THE 'A. G. S. ' BOOK, " which seems to be a reference guide containing 100 pages and 150 illustrations covering standardization in engineering materials used in aircraft construction. At the bottom center is bold text stating "THE AIRCRAFT SUPPLIES CO. LTD. " followed by their address at 17 John Street, Theobalds Rd. , London W. C. , indicating their location for business inquiries. Below that nameplate is another address for their works location at Little James St. , W. C. Finally on the far right side are additional details about standardization efforts underlined by phrases like “OUR MOTTO IS STANDARDIZATION” and “STANDARDIZED IN OUR STANDARD WORKS, ” highlighting their commitment to quality control and efficiency in production processes essential for reliable aircraft parts manufacturing.
