Used Drexel Forklift

It was the height of the Gilded Age and J. Pierpont Morgan controlled the fate of railroads, corporations, and governments. The wealthy and influential were said to tremble before his blinding intellect and intimidating gaze, yet he deferred to one man: Anthony J. Drexel. Drexel -- whose name is familiar today only through the university he founded and his recently canonized niece and protegee, Katharine -- was the most influential financier of the nineteenth century. The second son of an Austrian emigre, Anthony Drexel soon established himself as the preeminent financial mind in the Philadelphia currency brokerage his father began in 1838. Shunning publicity, self-promotion, and high-profile public accolades -- he declined President Ulysses S. Grant's invitation to become Secretary of the Treasury -- Drexel initiated a partnership with J. P. Morgan and his father Junius that became the most powerful financial combination of its age. With his characteristic prescience, Drexel selected Wall Street as the site for his New York branch and commissioned an opulent building, the likes of which the financial district had never seen, from which the younger Morgan could conduct business for the firm. And with Drexel's support the confused underachiever J. P. Morgan blossomed into a confident financial titan. At a time when the United States did not have a central bank, the government as well as large-scale commercial ventures relied on financiers to raise the enormous sums of money necessary to build railroads, construct factories, and fight major wars. With branches and partnerships in London, Paris, Chicago, and New York, all benefiting from their leader's reputation for impeccableintegrity, Drexel's firms were able to steer American business through the most extraordinary long-term economic growth of any nation in world history, as well as through four devastating depressions, an enlightening lesson in the cyclical nature of the U.S. economy.

Forklift truck - A forklift truck (often just called forklift) is a powered industrial truck used to lift and transport materials by means of steel forks inserted under the load.

Ruth Drexel - Ruth Drexel (born July 14, 1930) is a Bavarian actress and theatre director. Although Drexel has been a serious actress, director and theatre manager for many decades, her wide popularity rests on her comic role (since 1996) as Resi Berghammer in the German television series, Der Bulle von Tölz, where she plays, in Bavarian dialect, the adventurous and resolute mother of the eponymous cop.
