Scope and content
ca. 1971. Copy of customer print ordered by Star Iron & Steel Co. on August 2, 1971. View of mobile crane; this is possibly a Karricon self-propelled straddle carrier. Star Iron & Steel had received the exclusive licensing agreement to manufacture and sell Karricon straddle carriers in the United States. This contract would have added to the large increase in sales experienced by Star Iron & Steel that enabled the firm to triple employment at its Tacoma plant.
