Ely
Patent Combo Tool Wrench This combination hatchet, wrench hammer, cutter, puller and more is marked with the 1889 patent
date shown. The finished product has little too do with the original idea.
This guy must have had a lot on his mind as he added about a dozen new ideas to
this version. Check out the compound lever action he used. It is the
first example I have ever had or seen. A hard
to find combo wrench that I wish had teeth in the looped handle so I could call
it a corn sheller as well.
Excellent..... $195.00 SOLD!
IHC
Cutout Implement Wrench This is a
tough one to find, and this one is in exceptionally nice condition with absolutely
no damage to the letters and it still has what I believe to be original finish
or black paint on it. It is marked 770E on the back side near the smaller
head. No rust, and no pitting on this one. You will like
it. Good+ .......$395.00 SOLD
Granite State Cutout Wrench This wrench is in good condition. Other than some minor pitting it is very nice. There is no damage to the letters. A very hard to find wrench.
Good+ ..... $95.00 SOLD!!!
Remington
Patented Buggy Wrench This one is in good
condition and fully operational. The spring is still strong. These can also be
found unmarked, but these unmarked ones are much harder to find. Good
+........ $125.00 SOLD
Patented Crescent Style
Adjustable Plier / Wrench This Plier /
wrench appears to be in very nice condition and looks great. For those who were
in a bigger hurry than the speed the standard crescent wrench offered.
Different and hard to find. Good
........ $120.00 SOLD
Duffy Patented Pipe Wrench This one is clearly marked and hails from PA. It has a weird head design, and I would bet it would snap right off if really put to the test, but back then that was not the point. It was to try and produce or invent the better wrench. A great example of an idea gone wild. Good ........ $55.00 SOLD
Frich Hi Wheel Bicycle Wrench
The first letter on the name of this wrench is hard to read, but on the other
side the Hi Wheel bicycle logo is clear as day. A great wrench that has seen
use, but is nice.. Good ........
$175.00 SOLD
Bemis & Call 6" Double End This
is the hardest to find of all double end wrenches. This wrench is in very nice
condition, it is virtually corrosion and pit free. Strong marking, no damage
and ready for the collection. Good+

SOLD
Bullard #0 Patent Oct. 27th 03
This is the smallest size and most
difficult to find quick adjusting pipe wrench by this maker. It is in very
nice condition and operates flawlessly. A nice example.
Excellent ..... $75.00
SOLD
Scholler 6-8" Double headed Crescent Style Wrench This wrench is in nice condition, and as it is one of the earlier styles of Crescent wrenches it is markedly larger in scale than the newer thinner ones. A much harder wrench to find than the more common Crescents or Diamolloy models. Good+ ..... $65.00 SOLD
Unmarked Small Buggy or Nut
Wrench This wrench is in very good overall
condition. There is a little turned up edge at the straight jaw but it is very
minor. The square nut end is very nice as is the hardwood handle. Cute, and
hard to find. Good+ ..... $125.00 SOLD
Patent Appl'd Alligator Wrench
Latch it on and go. Another one sure to
tear up the work, but then that was probably not the main consideration when the
fellow put this one on the market. Increased productivity and speed were the,
and watch the knuckles bleed. It is 10" long and has some minor rust from
sitting, but is otherwise pretty nice. Good+
........$150.00 SOLD
Jaguar 4" Crescent Style Wrench I remember when 4" crescents were 1.00 and nobody cared. Now folks routinely ask 20.00 and much more for any and all. They are fun to collect and I have heard that there are over 100 different versions out there for you to hunt after. This is one of the earlier and harder to find versions that I suppose was given out with your brand new car way back when. Good+ ..... $125.00 SOLD
Whitman Quick Adjust Wrench This 5 3/4" antique quick adjust wrench hails from Denver Co. It opens to accept a whopping 1/2". The box says it is case hardened, and appears to have a blued finish to me. It is in its original box, and looks to have never seen use, just some minor box storage age. Different Excellent ..... $95.00 SOLD
Granite State Cutout Wrench This wrench is in good condition. Other than some minor pitting it is very nice. There is no damage to the letters. A very hard to find wrench. Good+ ..... $75.00 SOLD
Double Head Twist Handle Nut / Pipe Wrench Twist handle wrenches are getting hard to find, but that is the typical ones. You will see 100 of the standard single head nut wrenches for every one of these. This is a rare and hard to fin version. A bit rusty, but after going through the secret process you have it will look great. Good ........ $100.00 SOLD
Bay State Quick Adjust Nut Wrench Patented June 7th 1904 It says it is the Bay State on the head, with the patent info on the other side. The best and most collectible wrenches are those that were designed and produced based on a lousy idea or ones that worked poorly. This one fits the bill nicely as there is no provision included to allow for the final adjustment that is almost always needed when using a nut wrench to avoid slippage and the resulting rounded nuts, and banged knuckles. Perhaps pipe wrenches could get away without this provision, but you can bet that this design would have a tendency to round off some of those tight ones, and also be near impossible to adjust in a tight area. Seldom seen, and in nice operating condition now that it is clean. That was another problem with this and many of the other quick adjust wrenches that were introduced. All the superior engineering and machining would come to a sticky grinding halt with just a few grains of dirt in the proper place. I have either the 10" version, or a 12" and both are in similar nice condition. Good+ ........$125.00 SOLD

Right .... Good ..... $12.00 SOLD!
Buggy Nut Wrench This is a pretty uncommon buggy wrench. It has a
jaw problem on one side where the guide is broken off that should ride the rail.
They made these in different sizes and I believe this is the smallest. A
good example for the peg board display where they will never see the other side.
It is otherwise very nice.
Fair..... $40.00 SOLD!
CYN-W-26
Never-Slip
ComboWrench This combo wrench shows up from time to time, but rarely in this
condition or in its original box. A hard
to find wrench in super condition.

Combo
Wrench Hammer Puller etc. This combo wrench has a bunch of different aspects. I
am not sure if it was aimed at one particular trade or task, or if it was just
offered as an all round tool.
