We used to make things in this country #349, Kondu Manufacturing, Preston, Ontario

 The Kondu Manufacturing Company in Preston made a variety of electrical products such as conduits, outlet boxes and light fixtures. This 1944 ad promotes their marine electrical products.  Catalog below, year unknown but there is evidence the company was around in the early 20s at least. Also no information on when the company disappeared...

So after spending a good 10 minutes of my life trying to figure out how the "Glove Holder" (No. 2202) might work, I looked at the next couple of lamps and figured out it's a typo.

Those are some nice lamps though, if you happen to own a funeral home.

See description for #5201... :-) I do get the impression that maybe English (Over all) was not that catalog writers first language though...
