chrstn53 Report post Posted June 27, 2013 Over the past few years I occasionally pick up estate lots of tools to fill in my collection. Normally I might see 1 or 2 RBS tools in a collection of 100 or more. Recently I came across 36 RBS tools and have been very impressed on how well the impressions come out. I'm just curious if anyone has any information on the company?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shtoink Report post Posted June 28, 2013 RBS was the name of the line of tools Stohlman was involved with prior to Craftool. In fact, the same factory making the early Craftool stamps were making the RBS stamps, too. WyomingSlick is the man that has the most data on the topic. I did some searching and this is what I found... http://leatherworker.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=32567 http://leatherworker.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=40440 http://leatherworker.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=37956entry235440 http://leatherworker.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=30730&st=0&p=204732entry204732 http://www.ebay.com/gds/The-Other-Leathercraft-Stamping-Tools/10000000002193815/g.html And one more that isn't directly from WyomingSlick, but it's about half way down the page. http://pslac.org/iilg/background.htm I hope this answers your questions.
