Vintage tools
Q: I read in your column recently that a reference book for vintage tools has just been published. Since I am disposing of a large collection, it might be helpful. Can you tell me the name of the book and where it can be purchased? — Walter, Palm Coast, Fla.
A: The book is the Antique Trader Tools Price Guide, edited by Kyle Husfloen. It features more than 2,000 current prices, at least 500 illustrations and a special section on tool collecting.
