Those are nice looking DOE's!

I especially like the little holder. Did that come with the wrenches, or was that something you had laying around waiting for a use?

The holder came with the wrenches. Don't know if it's original but the (5) wrenches fit perfectly in it. Just needs a shorter screw.
The side of the holder is stamped "MADE IN USA".

That is so nice to find, a set that's been together for years.   The holder is a real premium, might it had a thumb screw?

Check your local Fastenal store for the right length thumb, or wing, screw.  I have done so, and they never let me down.

Yeah, it's a 10-32 thread.
I checked my stash of old thumbscrews this morning, but no 10-32.
