So you've found a Davis, King, E.M.F., a Marion or Buckeye spark plug, a Keystone, a large Pope Mfg., Hassler, or a Deluxe Motor wrench.  How about a monkey wrench stamped "Royal"? Want to see the cars that these, and other, wrenches went to?  Go to this site which shows 100's of pictures of long-forgotten autos. by year, starting with those of more than a 100 years ago

That site is way cool! Ime loving it. I am sure I will be looking at it again.

Thanks for sharing.
And I'm proud to be an American,
where at least I know I'm free.
And I won't forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.

Years ago, I found an old monkey wrench with the word "Royal" stamped on the handle.

There is a picture of a 1910 Royal on the site mentioned above.  The Royal auto's monkey wrench is pictured below.
