I thought I would share these scans Frank sent me of the Elco plant and other related sales info. Hope you enjoy.

Englander Mattress Company, according to the Tremaine records I have, bought the Elco plant sometime in 1950-51. There was no record as to the cost. I also learned that the Sikorski Plant in Connecticut actually had one of the machines from Elco. on their assembly floor.
