I started my selling career at the early age of nine, selling newspapers and magazines, door to door. Therefore, the name of my newsletter, - the News Boys News.

I have spent my entire life selling the above, plus sugar, tires, appliances plumbing supplies, electrical supplies and printing.  It has been a good life!

My wife (of 55 years), Barbara and I own and operate this web site.  We are both in our early 70’s and have lots of vigor and vitality.

We have raised three children, a minister, a secretary, and a human relation’s director.  We also have five grandchildren.  We are indeed proud of them all.

We are a Christian family and are very devoted to our church and it's beliefs.

Barbara and I both work together operating the food pantry at our church, which keeps us both busier than we would like to be.  We supply food to those in need, regardless of religion or ethnic background.  During the past ten years, we have had many in our church that have been out of work, due to layoffs.

We spent our early years (44 of them) owning and operating a printing business.  That knowledge has given us the experience of working with people, making them happy customers and we wanted to continue doing that.  You cannot stay in business for that long and not know the needs and desires of your customers.

We developed this inter net business for several reasons.  Number One; we had the need to add to our income.  Number Two; we thought we needed something more to keep us busy and out of trouble.  You can only do so much sightseeing, fishing, hiking and the like.  Number three we wanted to continue helping people.  To be able to help people, we need more of item number one.

Our business philosophy is to have every customer - a satisfied customer.  We know too well, that to keep them coming back, you have to give excellent service.  Our product “must be” worth the money.

This is the seventh year that Art Craft, inc. has been in business on the inter net.  We started out small and have steadily expanded our business.  We represent several different lines.

It is our goal, to carry in stock, the best products that money can buy.  We primarily only carry American made products, however, some items are imports, mostly by necessity.

If we do not have in stock exactly what you are looking for, I am sure we have it available. 

For example, we have access to permanent flag poles for your yard or business of every description – up to 40 feet tall, in every finish that is available.  We can get you a 40’ x 75’ flag if you need it.  We even have access to flags of every nation.  Even though we do not carry them in stock, we can give you a good deal on these items!

 Thank you for visiting us and we look forward to serving you soon!
