Today's Featured Tool Description

Masek, C./Cleveland, O. : Advertising Glue Pot. Rare Item. Near New Condition. Length: 1.50 Inches. An ADVERTISING GLUE POT by C. Masek, Cleveland, Ohio. The story has been passed on to us that Mr. C. Masek, whose glue company these miniature glue pots were meant to promote, made a habit of giving a shiny new glue pot to every person he met. The good news is--for the collector, at least--is that Mr. Masek apparently didn't meet many people. John D. Rockefeller is known to have given a shiny new dime to every person he met, and he must most certainly have been quite outgoing, as there are dimes everywhere you look. We display the two here, in juxtaposition so as to illustrate this latter-day tale of tortoise and hare. Diligent to a fault and committed to making the Masek Glue Company the best in all of North Central Ohio, C. Masek may not have cornered the market in oil, but his commemorative keepsakes have become infinitely more valuable than the cheap pocket change dispensed by the so-called philanthropist. A rare collectible from an unpretentious industrialist. (FINE). This item was sold on September 9, 2006 for $60.00. jpg_file

Just Added to the Auctions

jpg_file Lot 400. A classic FOLD OUT OAK WORK BENCH by Hammacher Schlemmer & Company, New York, New York. This is one of the finest examples of this bench that we have been privileged to offer for sale. It is complete with the original keys and early all of the original finishes remain on this classic "gentleman's" bench, which was designed for use in New York City apartment buildings by amateur woodworkers. This is the earlier type with a wooden, rather than an iron vise. Extra special, and highly recommended. (GOOD+).(3,500.00 - 7,500.00) Length: 48 Inches.
