Department store tools, Montgomery Ward







Montgomery Ward's business life seems to have been somewhat erratic and tumultuous, its no surprise that policies changed surrounding their tool brand names. Wards is a simple enough name, Riverside was used for the motorcycles, it was also used for a line of wrenches. Lakeside seems to be a natural after that. Other private-label brands included "Chromium Vanadium", Eclipse, Lakeside, Powr Kraft,  Speedmaster, Ward Master, Wardmastr, Wards Master Quality, all outsourced from various manufacturers.
