Walco wrenches were made by Walworth, #8 is the length.

Pertinent patent numbers (see DATAMP) include 1,862,001 & 1,862,002 (http://www.datamp.org/patents/displayPatent.php?number=1,862,002&type= )  I have a box of these "new old stock" still in paper wrappers -- I should hunt it up and see what markings are on the movable jaw.

I have the same Walco pipe wrench, same patent # except mine is a number 10. I love this old wrench. I found mine in the basement of the house I bought.
