In amongst the stuff at the weekend garage sales I found this old bear.

Under the rust I can see enough to make out either 'perfect handle or 'practical housekeeping'.

That's an H D Smith, yes,it is!
Congrats!! I have never seen one
First one for me to, I'm drooling. Your a lucky man.
Very nice find, are you keeping as is or restoring her?
WOW!!!!
Nice!!
Smith was the only one to make hammers, so it doesn't say Practical Housekeeping.
Love the thought though. heeheheheheeheh
yours Scott
That is a great looking hammer, I hope its goes to someone that will love it just the way it is
This qualifies as "Score of the Month" I'd say!!! Very,mega cool!!!
