Old tool catalogues

[nellist]

Does anyone know where I can obtain old woodwork tools and machine cataloges.

 

[Smudger]

Do you mean catalogues of old tools or old catalogues of tools?

If the former, try Tony Murland and David Stanley.

 

[nellist]

No old catalogues of tools.

 

[Grinding One]

What kind of old tools Hand or Power?

 

[Smudger]

And how old - you really need to explain what you want.

 

[Jake]

This lot really are unhelpful.

Ebay, try Ebay. Or a shop.

 

[Smudger]

Cheers.

 

[Jake]

Do I really need to add smileys to that? I thought it was obvious enough...

 

[BradNaylor]

Jeez,

You're a grumpy lot in London, aren't you?

Many oldtool dealers have such things, or at least reprints.

Here's Alf's list of dealers:
