Plenty of new and rare advertising items that will excite more than the playmate of the month. I've enlisted the talents of the nations leading experts to ensure accuracy that you can count on. You'll just love the expanded history chapter too, with dozens of new illustrations. Plus much much more...

To get ordering info and get your name on my mailing list for advanced sales--send a SASE (self adressed stamped envelope) and you'll be among those to get the opportunity to get a limited signed autographed, numbered first edition. Mail to John Walter - 151 Hawk Ave. - Akron, Oh. 44312.
Also, announcing a brand NEW BOOK entitled "THE HISTORY OF STANLEY TOOLS" by John Walter, that will be a coffee-table sized book loaded with color illustrations is coming soon.
The author is inundated with abundance of new material and decided to publish a complete new Stanley Book.
There's just simply so much information that I could not possibly begin to add all of this great material to my existing Stanley title. This is an 8.5x11 inch book, already over 250 pages.
The cover is done, ISBN's are locked in, still need run by the proof readers, copy editors, they will be ready soon, almost ready!
Both books will be available by sometime this summer. I've been to the printers and we're in the final stages of completion.
There will be both soft and hard covers editions as in the past. Plus kindle and ebook versions too.
Readers, thanks for your continued patience, support and patronage! I appreciate continuous attention to first edition and many inquiries for this edition. You have voted me number one tool book with your dollars --which I still find surprising and rather flattering. It amazes me what used copies are bringing. Now, I need your vote again in a timely manner to get me back on the press. So, send SASE and watch for pre-sale info. Many or you have lamented, they wish they would have bought a case quantity, when comparing to what used copies are consistently fetching, as opposed to what their stocks or 401k's are doing.
WATCH FOR A "STANLEY TOOL COLLECTORS" PRESENCE ON THE WORLD WIDE WEB
Will soon launch Stanley Tool Collectors Assn. (non-profit website) StanleyToolCollectorsAssn.org
AND on Facebook: Stanley Tool Collectors, please feel free to make posts and chat as you wish. I am way too busy to monitor, answer questions, etc. This page is for you to use and enjoy as you like! Enjoy...
It's January, 2022, great time for Stanley Tool enthusiasts!
Watch for online ordering details here soon.
This is the official site and only site authorized by John Walter for this new title. Beware of copy cats, pirates or imitators. Especially from the land called "down under"
Author apologises for long delay in publishing this highly anticipated book and not responding to multitude of requests. Sorry too many to answer, and need to stay focused and making progress...
Please note: many readers sent in SASE's years ago or sent emails to me at The Old Tool Shop in Marietta, Ohio --wanting to be contacted when a new edition is ready. I regret to inform those readers, that much of that information was lost or ruined when the Ohio river rose up 44 feet over it's banks and flooded out the historic downtown riverfront district.
