Advertising Brochure for the Aermotor Company Windmill, 1904

Artifact Overview
Engineer Thomas O. Perry applied knowledge gained through thousands of controlled tests to perfect a steel windmill, introduced in 1888. Competitors downplayed the mathematical precision of Perry's design, but investments by LaVerne Noyes, a manufacturer in Chicago, and consumer interest in smaller, more durable windmills for less price helped Aermotor windmills become the industry standard.
