If ever in Invercargill, NZ you must call into Hayes Hammer Hardware in the central city. Amongst a lot of other very interesting things they have a cabinet containing some fascinating rare tools. None of the boring old left-handed screwdrivers, but there are right-angle hammers and heaps of others I can't recall right now.
It's well worth a visit, but allow at least a couple of hours.

Re: Rare tools
I've had to modify quite a few tools to do a specific job over the yrs, but a right angle hammer certainly takes the cake
