Vintage Collectible Calumet Claw Hammer From Late 1800’s: $110.00
Up for sale is this Calumet claw hammer. From extensive research this hammer was distrubuted from Hibbard, Spencer, Bartlett & Co. during the late 1800’s. For its advanced age this hammer would be considered in very good to excellent condition. This hammer was produced pre-Vulcan Calumet Vulcan hammers. I am not sure that the handle is original. The chances are that it is not. The total weight of the claw hammer is 1 lb., 5 oz. Most likely the hammer head weighs in the neighborhood of 1 lb. The length of the hammer (with the handle) is 9 1/4 in. As you can see from the photos some of the handle on the top of the hammer is missing. I will send alon a couple of wedges with the purchaser. The wood has been cleaned and sealed. The hammer head has also been cleaned and I applied Fluid Film for rust & corrosion protection. Wedges and some wood filler and this hammer would be ready for use and certainly display.
