I'm not sure, but one could find Sohn's book through Norm Larson or Centaur
Forge. The price has risen of late. The book is well worth the price.

Volume III of Sonn's book, Early American Wrought Iron has 40 pgs. of what he 
calls foot scrapers showing over 100 different items.

Since this book is out-of-print and rather hard to come by, I run across maybe 
two or three copies a year eventhough I advertise in the op market for the book.

Bill Gichner could probably "find" a copy of Sohn's book for you. However, be
prepared to pay his price. A better way would be to have your local public or
college library get it by interlibrary loan for you. You could copy the
material of interest(not the whole book), for your own personal use.
