Belknap, Dept. 2 Garden Tool Catalog, ca. 1969

[FortyTwoBlades]

Just finished the scanning process on this big ol' Belknap department catalog from 1969. It was large enough a flatbed scanner wouldn't work and I had to buy an overhead book scanner to capture it and put it on a modified stand to increase its elevation somewhat. Some very neat pages with scythes, forks, shovels, hoes, rakes, and more.

Thanks for sharing that 42.
I think I will look for some loppers out of that catalog.
I just came in from doing yard work and sharpening Corona brand loppers, terrible, it should be a crime to sell that junk.

Old Corona loppers are first class.

These old catalogs are priceless! Thanks.

I see you could buy DDT powder for $1.44 on page 208.
