In 1910 they would be Mummert, Wolf &  Dixon, of Hanover,PA
Makers of large automatic grinding and sharpening machines.

(Inc 1907;Sometime before 1915 they became just Mummert-Dixon Co)

Well,  the Mummert, Wolf and Dixon wrench has been secured and will be heading to Illinois for JIMWRENCH's collection this spring.

 Spring has sprung in Illinois and my M W & D wrench has arrived from California as promised. Although its not a farm implement wrench it seems right at home on my basement wall. This wall houses a variety of different wrench types and this wrench with its bold markings is very welcome.
