c. 1910s-1920s; W. S. Yohe Supply Co. - Canton, OH
Pair of freestanding cast iron pipe storage racks manufactured by W. S. Yohe Supply Co. of Canton, Ohio. Each rack features five open semicircular cradles designed to support lengths of pipe, bar stock, or other industrial materials while occupying a compact floor footprint. The sculptural, branching profile combines structural rigidity with an efficient storage layout, and the heavy cast bases are drilled for permanent floor mounting. Retaining their original foundry markings reading "W. S. YOHE - CANTON - OHIO," these racks exemplify the robust utility equipment produced for machine shops, factories, warehouses, and industrial supply houses during the early twentieth century.
Founded in Canton, Ohio, W. S. Yohe Supply Co. manufactured and distributed industrial equipment and shop fixtures serving America's rapidly expanding manufacturing sector during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Their heavy cast iron products were designed for durability in demanding commercial and industrial environments.

The castings are structurally sound with no observed cracks or breaks. Mounting bases retain their original bolt holes for floor installation, and both pieces present an attractive, untouched industrial patina. less
