Synopsis

'Admired for their high-quality craftsmanship and beautiful engravings, many classic hand tools are as elegant as they are ingenious. Before power tools and machinery all woodworking and carpentry was done by hand and this skillfully crafted price guide celebrates the mastery of fine antique American hand tools.

Compiled with the help of the experts from Fine Tool Journal and Brown Auction Services, Antique Trader? Tools Price Guide follows the same trusted format of the other Antique Trader? single-category price guides: offering clear photos, up-to-date prices, and detailed listings. Coverage includes items in the most popular tool-collecting categories from the late 18th century through the middle of the 20th century. More than 1,500 photographs and current collector values accompany nearly 4,000 listings.
