Gladstone Tools!?

So there we were, Lucy and I, at the Museum of the American Cocktail in New Orleans. And what should we see? Why, it's a a souvenir ice-smasher with the Gladstone Tools brand. What is the Gladstone Tools brand, you may ask? Why it's the house brand of Manny Shambhu and his fantastic artist son and dear friend of mine, Jim Shambhu.
Here's the whole set of photos from our visit.
Ahh yes the small wood joiner's mallet from Gladstone Tools. Perfect for pounding out those mortise and tenon joints and apparently good for crushing ice!
ReplyDeleteThat is just swell.
