Good Manufacturing Co. San Francisco - Niagara Falls, Canada.
The Good Mfg Co. was a plumbing supply co. which was sold and became Crest/Good Mfg in New York in 1965. i think that this must have been a an early piece of theirs from around when they started in the 1890s, but am not sure. what a great little toolbox! i picked it up at the Alameda Pointe Flea Market a couple years ago. it's filled w/ little rusty things i use in my sculptures.
The San Francisco - Niagara Falls, Canada words are a mystery to me - couldn't find any info on that.
When do you think it was made and do you know what the sf-niagara falls means?
I would assume they had mfg. facilities in those locations, it's easier to ship raw materials than finished product.
that might be right walksoftly. thanks!
thank you AR8Jason. great info to have!
The Crest Co bought the Good Co in 1965
