Description
Advertisement of a hand saw and an agricultural monkey wrench. This advertisement is of interest because it was before power tools, or motors were sold in the Eaton's catalogue. It illustrates that the average Canadian farmer was not interested in or incapable of buying modernized technology such as an electric motor or a gasoline engine to power farm equipment.
