 Meet Lynn and Tracy Dowd of Dowd's Vintage & Antique Tools in Garland, Texas.


"In addition to our company name, our business cards state "Hand Tools for the Craftsman and the Collector." There has been a resurgence of interest in hand craftsmanship over the past couple of decades, in both the professional and amateur sectors, and we aim to provide hand tools to those craftsmen and craftswomen. People enjoy using vintage and antique hand tools because it connects them to the history of their craft, the collector market, also, is much more robust than most folks realize. The fact that we are the largest and best known antique tool dealer in Texas sets us apart. Our clientele is not limited to Texas, however, nor to just the USA."
