Mike Lamb Posted June 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 I didn't look but it was one of my more interesting crawls.

hausdok Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 Now that Jim has mentioned it, I remember following my father into Wilson & Eaton's hardware in Amenia, NY as a small child and watching the old man grabbing handfuls of nails from rows of those casks lined up and labeled, dropping them onto a scale where the clerk would then dump them into a cloth sack.
