Description

Household Implement - Leather Tooler This leather tooler is wooden and metal. It was used to tool saddles, etc. with a name or a brand and could have been used by Rice in the Civil War. It is finely made, the wooden handle is polished and the metal tip is joined to the handle with a brass ring which is stamped with a design. This object was in a glass case in the Rice Room at the library. Apparently General Rice had a beautiful saddle which has not been found in Worthington.
