Maker : Early American Industries Association
Condition: NEW
Price: $0.00
SOLD: December 21, 2007
Just weeks after its issuance as the First Edition, we are pleased to offer, by special arrangement, this superb new reference work. First conceived more than 20 years ago, this massive volume of more than 1100 pages contains an encyclopedic listing of more than 14,000 documented American toolmakers who worked before 1900. Masterfully edited by Robert E. Nelson with an investment of self not seen since Michaelangelo got down from the scaffold, this book will be consulted often by tool collectors, antique dealers and students of history. Each listing contains the maker name, working location, working dates, birth and death dates, types of tools produced, notes on variations in maker marks used and narrative text entries that relate specific details of the maker's products. For the collector this information is the key to appreciating tools to a greater degree; and for the dealer, this essential reference provides valuable insight into value. Only a limited number of copies were printed and we have no assurance of a continued supply. We encourage you to order soon.
