1900 Diving Apparatus Dresses and Hoses
C.E. Heinke & Co., circa 1900. Diving Apparatus, Dresses and Hose. 4th ed. C.E. Heinke & Co., 79 Great Portland Street, London W. 60 pages. (Dark black-green cloth covered board with gold titling and gold outline illustration of a Heinke helmet on the front).
This is a reprint which I bought in Spain. Unfortunately the pages have all been bound the wrong way around ( wrong side attached to the spine ) When you have an original Heinke catalog available then please allow me to make you an offer for it.
1908 Diving Apparatus Dresses and Hoses
C.E. Heinke & Co., circa 1908. Illustrated Catalogue of ‘Diving Apparatus, Dresses and Hose’ 4th and 5th eds. C.E. 55 pages. Heinke & Co., 87, 88 and 89 Grange Road, Bermondsey, London, S.E. (Green cloth covered board illustrating C.E. Heinke shop-front premises depicted in white outline).
This is a reprint. When you have an original Heinke catalog available then please allow me to make you an offer for it.
1955 Diving Apparatus
Illustrated Catalogue of ‘Diving Apparatus’. 37 pages. The company address has been covered with retail sellers addresses before someone made the copy for me so I cannot read the exact address. Neither I can find a date. I estimate it 1955. This could be a sales catalog from a retail dealer of Heinke equipment but when searching on the internet I cannot find any info on the english address at the label.
This is a reprint. When you have an original Heinke catalog available then please allow me to make you an offer for it.
1959 Specifications and Schedules of Heinke Diving Equipment
On the cover of this sales catalogue is the company logo of ‘under-water cutters ltd’. I don’t know anything about this company but inside the catalogue Heinke equipment is offered for sale. I would think that this is in fact a catalog by a retail dealer of Heinke equipment but at the cover is a label of again different company: the retail dealer ( underwater sales limited ) And the label of a dutch retail dealer ( wynmalen & hausman, no need to call them for old stuff: I did that already. Some 10 years ago the company moved to a new address and all old stock and archives were destroyed ... )
Do you have any info on ‘under-water cutters ltd’ or ‘underwater sales limited’ then please let us know.
1955 Diving and Under Water Engineering Equipment
C.E. Heinke & Co. Ltd, circa 1959-60. Specifications and Schedules of HEINKE DIVING EQUIPMENT. Heinke & Co. Ltd., (Diving And Safety Equipment Engineers), Grange Road, London S.E.1. 98 pages 34 x 23 cm. Printed light blue wrapper with half line drawing of a smiling ‘standard’ diver.
