In a extra large mixing bowl (I use my kitchen aid stand mixer for this), cream/mix the shortening, both sugars, eggs and vanilla until very well blended and fluffy.
3
In a smaller bowl mix together (do not sift) the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt, with a spoon.
4
Add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture and beat well until blended.

Roll into walnut size balls (or larger if desired).

Roll into the cinnamon/sugar mixture, making sure that the balls are well coated.
