Great Northern Flea Market - several Whose-Its?
« on: June 05, 2016, 04:33:23 PM »
In Adams Center NY.  We went to look for something they had advertised - which we did not buy.  But outside in the rain was a table and some tool boxes with wrenches and the usual junky stuff.  I was surprised these weren't inside the building with tags tied to them saying $2, $5, $10.

Left to right
JP Danielson - just like the ones on AA 1930's to 42 - These are going in my plier drawer!
Thin Japan pliers - also keeping for a tool kit.
The rest of all this stuff I will likely sell off...if they're of value...
Utica Duckbill pliers
Moore pliers
Wrench with a spring clip in the offset square Pat April 28 1903 stamped BABCOCK http://datamp.org/patents/displayPatent.php?pn=726782&id=24800
Oneida No.1 box wr ???
Rusty Bonney open end with SAE markings
Wrench DOE 3/4 5/8 marked only Forged USA

IHC P1183 - is this in demand?  What was it for?
INOX? PUROX #6402 gas cyl wrench?
Short heavy wrench with odd curve 15/16 1-1/16 both ends no markings
Heavy plated alligators - small is marked in an oval "Bonney Vise & Tool Works" "**CA PA" in center of oval and across the bottom something followed byt the date "1876"
The large alligator - has a big "3" stamped in the middle and the mid other side has a circle about 1/2 round with letters only two of which might be readable.  small Bonney shield - just able to be read.
And an 11 inch Auto with no other marks - I think it will clean up and work OK, jaws not bad, varnish on handle
Thanks for lookin'
Al

 I would believe that the Babcock would be a good seller.

 does the Moore pliers also say "Springfield, Mass. ?

The Moore pliers only have the M Circle logo.  No knurling on the handles and the jaws are fairly worn.  Somebody welded the nut so there's no adjustment.  They're very plain and in sad shape.

amecks,

the unbranded 3/4 x 5/8 DOE on the right side of your 1st photo was made by Barcalo.

I think AA calls it a Geometric?
Cleaned up, it will be attractive.

So that's a Barcalo wrench?  I knew I had seen them before here on Tool Talk but did not remember who made it.  I had use for a 3/4 wrench in my welding kit so I cleaned it and painted the recessed parts blue, adding a light clear coat.  It looks good.  The cad plating is long gone - I saw no sign of it. 
Thanks
