I purchased what looks like a 1929 7 1/2 White Truck Erector set. Inside the wood box it has a young man in a tie and apron with “Gilbert ___ boy” on it. The middle word is scraped off and I am trying to find out this word. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Frank Stewart (drfrankstewart@gmail.com).
Guy Lanza recently sent us a photograph of a combination record player and television set which he saw in a museum in Tyumen, Siberia. We’re sharing Guy’s photographs below. According to the label, the appliance was manufactured by the A.C. Gilbert Company of New Haven, Connecticut. Our thanks to Guy for sharing this.
