This lot features an assortment of lawn, garden, and utility tools organized on a multi-part adjustable wall-mount rack system. The collection includes a round-point digging shovel and a square-point spade, both constructed with steel heads and weathered wooden handles. A long-handled floor or ice scraper is present alongside a push broom with green synthetic bristles and a wooden handle. The collection contains a four-tine garden fork with a green-coated metal neck and a wooden handle, bearing a visible label for the Ames brand. Also included is a vintage-style one-man crosscut saw featuring a carved wooden D-handle and a heavy-gauge steel blade. Other items consist of a metal-tined leaf rake with a wooden handle, a double-handled post-hole digger, an automotive-style snow brush and ice scraper with a blue and black foam-grip handle, and a small wire-bristle brush. The storage system consists of black metal rails with various adjustable hooks and brackets designed for wall mounting.
Condition report:
The items in this collection are in used condition with varying degrees of wear. The older metal components, specifically on the shovels, spade, saw, and post-hole digger, exhibit significant surface oxidation and heavy rust. The wooden handles show signs of weathering, including discoloration and grain texture consistent with age and exposure. The push broom bristles show moderate use. The more modern tools, such as the Ames garden fork and the automotive snow brush, appear to be in better cosmetic condition with minimal wear. The wall-mount rack shows typical signs of installation and use, including minor scuffing and finish wear.
