Item description from seller

Gray cloth boards with tipped in photograph on front cover and gold gilt lettering on cover and spine, 190 pp., bw illustrations. "As anyone who has tried can attest, gathering a collection of New Jersey marked tools can be a slow process. Years of looking and a great deal of luck are required. Ever since 1975, when asked to write an article on them, the author has searched for New Jersey tools and information about their makers. During more than seven years of studying early business directories, newspapers, and histories, he has compiled a list of more than 300 of these toolmakers. Included in this book is information derived from such historical sources as well as from living descendants about the lives of New Jersey's early toolmakers. Among the numerous tools pictured are many of historic significance." - quoted from Introduction. VG- (minimal shelf wear at edges, sticker residue on inside cover, all pages clear and intact).

Mullen Books maintains a very active computerized inventory which grows by 2-300 titles per week. Our specialties include the Humanities, with an emphasis on Art, Architecture, Photography, Decorative Arts, History, as well as Periodicals related to those areas. We have very rare as well as fairly common titles. Current inventory is approximately 79,000 titles. We have about 1000' of backlog in our specialties numbering over 30,000 items (including 20,000+ smaller and ephemeral catalogues devoted to individual artist exhibitions). Current stock occupies over 2.3 miles of shelving. We are active buyers as well as very active sellers, and supply entire reference libraries as well as individual titles. We ship books almost everywhere, with the exception of China due to restrictions. Our website mullenbooks.com maintains our entire database of over 150,000 titles dynamically, so you can submit "wants" for books which are listed, but not currently in-stock. It is a major research tool. Despite what Google may indicate, we are only open to visitors by appointment, as our schedules are dynamic depending upon the needs of our valued employees.
