Notes

This item was removed from our vertical file folder for the Warren Tool Corporation. The Warren Tool Corporation was formed in 1911 as the Warren Tool and Forge Company by James D. Robertson, who served as the first President. The factory was located on Griswold NE, and by 1917 it employed 115 men. In the 1921 its owners purchased the American Block and Manufacturing Company and the General Malleable Company, and Warren Tool Corporation came into being in 1932 when the company was reorganized. In 1934 the foundry was sold and the plant went into full production of heavy hand-forged tools. In 1972 a distribution center was opened in Hiram Village. Local operations closed in 1984 when the Warren manufacturing plant ceased production following a company-wide restructuring.
