I have this wrench marked DASCO, which (I think) stands for Damascus Steel Corp. On the back it's marked Chrome Molybdenum Steel with a part number 1731 (3/4 x 13/16). This seems to indicate it was made by Fairmount Cleveland. Does this sound right to you? I can't find much about DASCO except they were well known for punches. I couldn't find any info on their wrenches if they were made in house by Damascus Steel Corp or Fairmount. I'm kind of surprised by the lack of info out there... at least that I could find.

If there is a site or link to DASCO wrenches please let me know. For now all I can do is put it in my Fairmount Cleve collection and assume it's 1930's - 40's vintage???
