EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a selection of Nettlefolds Patent Pointed Screws, an engineering innovation that left a lasting impact on the construction industry during the early 1900s. The image, taken in 1903, reveals an intricately arranged display of these screws from Verity Electrical Supplies in Aston, Birmingham. Nettlefolds Patent Pointed Screws were renowned for their distinctive pointed thread design, which provided several advantages over traditional screws. The pointed thread allowed for easier and more precise screwing, reducing the risk of thread damage and ensuring a stronger connection. This innovation was particularly significant in the electrical industry, where reliable and secure fastenings were essential. The screws in the photograph exhibit a range of sizes and materials, including brass and steel. Their heads come in various shapes, such as flat, countersunk, and round. The meticulous arrangement of the screws in the display case highlights their uniformity and precision, reflecting the high standards of manufacturing during the Edwardian era. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a fascinating insight into the history of industrial design and the evolution of screw manufacturing. The Nettlefolds Patent Pointed Screws represent a testament to the ingenuity and craftsmanship of the time, and their influence can still be seen in modern screw designs today.
