BOLT’S ANTIQUE TOOL MUSEUM ANNOUNCES
2010 HISTORY IN YOUR HANDS PROGRAM

      Bolt’s Antique Tool Museum located at 1650 Broderick St., Oroville, announces the 2010     
      schedule for their successful “History in Your Hands Program.”
 
      Local resident Ken Manies, will join founder Carl S. 'Bud' Bolt in
      bringing  expertise to subjects including;
     
      JUNE 2010     
      History of Barbed Wire,
Friday June 25th at 1:00pm - Ken Manias.
     

      The museum which opened in 2006 not only has tools that have been used in the United
     States, but also has tools from 4000 years ago including tools thought to be made by 
     Egyptians and Romans in 400 B.C. A barbed-wire collection, old gas pumps, blacksmith tools
     and 125 tools representing 51 different railroads provides insight into earlier days in the  
     United States. A gift shop which has many memorable items including a special $1.00 table
     for tools to take home and the latest addition of custom greeting cards with a tool flair that
     are the creation of Mary Gunderson is available to make purchases for that special tool
     enthusiast in your life. Museum founder, 'Bud' Bolt said, “Mary visited the museum with a    
     car club and was so enthused with the various displays that she came back with a series of 
     very creative greeting cards that depict different items throughout the museum.”

     The History in your Hands program presentations are designed for ten to fifty participants
     and are held at the museum. A $3.00 per person fee is charged and the museum can assist
     groups with luncheon arrangements. The program is a not-to-miss interactive experience,
     as is the large collection of over 10,000 antique tools.

     Contact the museum at (530) 538-2528 for additional information and starting times for
     the presentations which run about two hours.
