Can anyone ID the vise in this pic ? I may go to a garage sale where it's at.

Based on the bullet shape of the front handle hub I believe it is a 3.5 inch Dunlap vise , Model #5244.
You might say I have a tool collecting problem....

I went and got the vise. I was the first one at the sale. It said no early birds. I got there at 9:00 and there was no one else waiting. It's a Morgan 3 1/2" vise. It's the first Morgan I've ever seen in person. It's in very good condition and the screw turns super smooth all the way in and out. I'm thinking it was made in the 1950's ??  I also got this SK 1/4" drive tool set. It's missing one original socket that I may have in another incomplete set.

I like that vise. The bullet screw is really cool - good find.
All my taste is in my tools.
