Leather Animals
Omersa and Company is known for its collection of handmade leather animal footstools and desk top accessories - the Omersa Collection. They've been made in England since 1927. I've liked them since I was a child and saw them at Abercrombie & Fitch. Edie Sedwick was also a fan.

McIntosh
McIntosh Laboratory still makes their audio components in Binghamton, NY as they have since the 1950's. Tube equipment is still being produced (with updated circuitry) with an appearance virtually unchanged from the original. I like the 2100 amplifier shown above. Great sound and looks. Built like a tank.

Great Writers
I like pens. An article by George Nelson called Great Writers published by Harpers magazine got me into them. His favorite writing instruments are shown. I'd add the Parker 75. (on the far right).
L.L. Bean Totes
L.L. Bean used to make a lot of great products in Maine. Well, their canvas totes are still Maine made, and great. You can get them in customized colors which is pretty cool.
