    These files were manufactured by Nicholson at the old Providence RI plant before 1959!  So, these new files are over 60 years old.  The good stuff!  A little history-
    Even as the company was growing production in factories around the country, it continued to expand its original complex in Providence. A  3-acre parcel purchased in 1919 would come to house its later buildings, including the final building of the complex, its 1943 power house with giant smokestack inscribed vertically in brick ‘Nicholson File Co’. In 1959, the company closed its flagship Providence factory and moved production to its plant in Anderson, Indiana.
