Unfortunatly, Bus has the right patent for the date, but not the right one for the tool. As sometimes happens, the Inventor used the original patent to protect the  invention, perhaps while awaiting the  issue of the newer patent...

Interestingly, the name of the company is the names of the 2 inventors involved here..

Thanks Rusty, Fig 4 is absolutely it. I have tried it on some very thin copper sheet stock and it works as well as an English wheel. The bronze wheel needs a good cleanup before it is useable. I am not so sure how well it worked taking wrinkles out of Model a fenders that are much thicker. Thanks again for your research.

I didn't look carefully enough, I just copied the image - but retraced it - it was in Australia (finished in October 2011)

The 1922 patent is for the Stiles Rollsemout see the attached pic, I'm in the process of aquiring one. I have the pliers, hammers all 3 sizes of  rollers and soon the Rollsemout. I live less than 25 miles from where they were made. I have more info putting a history of Stiles, Medart, Barrett, and Herman Johnson all partners one time or another.

Here is a later patent for that company- http://www.datamp.org/patents/displayPics.php?source=xrefCompany4234&start=0&id=4234

A metal working tool-

I added that one to DATAMP because the "tongs" portion with padded jaws is in dad's book  (no. 268  in ANTIQUE & UNUSUAL WRENCHES ).  Remember that DATAMP is the combined effort of about a dozen dedicated people.    Google patent searches depend on optical character recognition of the images in  microfilm copies of the patents.  I don't know when the microfilming was done.

Stan, that one looks like a marriage between a body hammer and a vice grips.

 It will be interesting to see what oldgoaly turns up in his research. Mssrs. Johnson and Stiles seem to have focused on dent repair tools.

Mr John C. Stiles seems to be the salesman!

Here are a few other Stiles Manufacturing products.

Radio appeared in 1925

wolf whistle is 1922

Barrett went on to make  drum brake and shoe repair equipment  for garages and shops.
