    Hand tools are very modern- they are all cordless
    NORMAL is just a setting on the washing machine.

    I couldn't find it either. I assume that no one has digitised it yet. However, here are a couple of other things I just this minute came across.

    http://books.google.com/books?id=8dw...worker&f=false the Strelinger tool catalogue from 1897,

    http://books.google.com/books?q=maga...afari&as_brr=1 American Woodworker magazine,


    I'm sure that both google books and Project Gutenberg will bear further fruits.

    Many Gutenberg titles are available in Internet Archive as PDF, eg Handwork in Wood
    http://www.archive.org/details/handworkinwood00noyerich

    these are a bit easier to store than html versions.
