This richly illustrated history details the brief life of the Vermont Copper Crafters-AKA Smith Craft Co. In the fall of 1946 Harry and Leonore McIntosh founded the company in Townshend, Vermont. After just five years the company was forced out of business when copper became unavailable during the Korean War. But in its short life something in excess of 50,000 items were produced and shipped throughout the country. After researching shop and office records the author has written a compelling, well-documented narrative weaving the results of his research together with his own personal memories and the memories of family and former company employees. 80 of the company's known 113 items are illustrated in these pages, and many details for all of the 113 are included, making this book a valuable resource for collectors and historians.
