 Vintage Machinery entry for Flickinger Iron Works

| 
| Description: |  | This drill press was very briefly manufactured by the W. W. Flickinger Iron Works of Cochranton. That firm would pivot to manufacturing gas engines and compressors for the booming oil industry, and although it never achieved a high profile it remained in business until 1914 when it became the Dresser Engine & Mfg. Co. |  |
