Seen in an 1890 catalog from Rowley & Hermance Co., and in an undated catalog from Hall & Brown Wood Working Machine Co. It is not known who actually made the chisels. The R & H catalog identified the chisel as the "Cole Pat. Mortise Chisel. The best mortising chisel in the market. Saves its cost in one week. Draws the chips perfectly. Price $1.50. In ordering, state size wanted and whose make of mortise you use." The H & B catalog reads, "Cole's Patent Chisel. Price of all width up to 1 inch, $1.50. Special size extra price." |
