I passed on it because it specialized on "Van-Chrome", which was also a line of tools made by Herbrand.
I was looking for info on the ratchet wrench in this photo.
It is the  Herbrand "speed ratchet".
I believe that Herbrand made the "Craftsman" speed ratchet for Sears Roebuck.
I found this ratchet at the "swap meet" that I visit every Saturday.
It was in a display box with other treasures.
Pricey, but I wanted it.

I opened it up, pulled out the main gear and the pawl springs.
All are fine.
When do you think this ratchet was made?

1949-50.

The patent referred to ended up being D158,073. The application was filed in 1949 and issued to E.A. Heschel in 1950.

But I don't believe Herbrand made the Craftsman version for Sears as I believe those tools were marked "V"...

Four days is a long time on that thing. Unless things have changed, expect it to fetch north of $100...
