Got this a couple of weeks ago at a garage sale. Since Covid hit last year these have become fewer and fewer and this weekend there will be none as we are all in lockdown! The usual gang of near theives had already visited 2 hours before it was supposed to open but that's OK I'm no longer after the run of the mill stuff they want for reselling I'm looking for the interesting stuff and this certainly is as it is from the 1940/50s. It was sad to see the look on the old guys face as they were downsizing and he needed to get rid of stuff I tried to make him feel better saying that the people that were there also appreciated old tools as they are better than most of the new stuff at the big box stores and they would get a new life of continued use.
