This collection of mid-20th century C. Drew tools indicates that Drew branched out to produce a wide variety of common hand tools ranging
from screwdrivers and wrenches to hand chisels. They are more well known for their caulking irons, cat's paws, trunk chisels, and cold
chisels. The two chisels, screwdriver, and wrench are the only Drew produced tools of this common type ever seen at Liberty Tool Co. Their
production, unlike that of cat's paws, must have been extremely limited. These tools came from a Kingston, MA, workshop just down the street
from the old Drew factory location and were all stored together in one metal box. A number of Goldblatt tools and one Osborne brick chuck
were also in this hoard.
