Description
ANTIQUE RAILROAD, SPIKE DRIVER 'MALL' / SPIKE 'REMOVER' with HARTWELL BROTHERS HANDLE. Used but in almost new condition. Nice item for the wall of your 'train room'. I believe the curved head was designed to remove railroad spikes. The handle is 36 inches long total and the head is 12 & 1/2 inches wide. It weights 7 & 1/2 pounds +. There is no manufactures name on the head but there is an 'emblem' that I do not recognize.The Hartwell handle is 'Genuine Hickory' and is marked 'PINTO' In the Hartwell Brothers Catalog #97, 'PINTO' is defined as "Medium and heavy weight white hickory permitting slight sound defects or bird pecks, fire tempered and spot treated". There are a few very small holes in the handle from 'sub terrain termites', I believe (please see photo). They are long gone.
