Iowa Twenty-Five Stationary (Twin Cylinder) 25 H.P. Iowa Twenty-Five Portable (Twin Cylinder) 25 H.P This manual is an original antique published by the company 90+ years ago.  The contents are fully complete but the covers were separated along the spine and there were some chips off the edges on the edges, mostly on the back cover.  I applied a piece of acid free paper archival tape along the spine to keep the manual intact.  There is some toning to the paper from age and some wear on the edges on the covers but it is still a pretty good specimen overall.  Email any questions.  Thanks for looking.   Payment TermsWinning bidders will receive an email at the end of the auction explaining the option for paying with Paypal.
