All Professionally Made to Order for Quick Shipping

Step back in time to the bustling streets of Earlsdon, Coventry on October 31st, 1973. The hardware store stands proudly amidst the lively atmosphere, offering a wide array of tools and supplies for all your DIY needs. Travel across the Atlantic to Huntsville, Alabama, where Harrison Brothers Hardware store has been a staple in the community for years. As you browse through their extensive collection, you stumble upon a hidden gem - a dazzling piece of jewelry that catches your eye. In Mt. Orab, Ohio during either 1942 or 1943 along Route 74, you find yourself stepping into a grocery store with an unexpected twist - it also houses a hardware section. This unique combination allows customers to conveniently pick up both their weekly groceries and any necessary home improvement items. Venture even further back in time to Silver City, North Carolina in 1939. Dorothea Lange's photograph captures the essence of this small town hardware store perfectly - its weathered exterior tells stories of countless projects completed by eager locals seeking quality materials. As we delve deeper into history, we come across an etching depicting Sir Basil Brooke - an English iron-founder and royalist conspirator who played his part in shaping the world of hardware stores as we know them today. Advertisements play their role too; Tidmans Sea Salt entices customers with promises of relaxation and rejuvenation through their luxurious bathing salts. A splash of color litho brings these products to life before our eyes. Le Vocabulaire Illustre showcases engravings representing different cultures' terms for "hardware store" - Quincaillier from France; Ironmonger from England; Eisenkramer from Germany. These illustrations serve as reminders that despite language barriers, there is always common ground when it comes to fixing things around the house. Trade cards hold historical significance too; William Plowman's engraved card highlights his expertise in the ironmongery and cutlery trade.
