Researching Instruments by Catalog
- Matching Model Numbers: Taylor catalog numbers often appeared stamped directly onto instrument scale plates or backings.
- Tycos vs. Taylor Branding: Catalogs printed before approximately 1932 prominently use the Tycos trade name, while post-1932 publications transition back to the parent Taylor banner.
- Looking for Patents & Inventions? Check the related Instruments documentation or browse our curated Bookmarks for links to historical patent databases.
