Hi all,
This arrived in post today:
I note some of these also have Patent numbers on the sides and tail cover but this one does not.
Whilst others, presumably later than this one don't have the large italic writing on the side.
Question: is there a way of dating this vice please? The adds I see below don't show a date on them when they started production. From Google this appeared to be 1928 when a patent was lodged and that may have expired in 1940?
Just curious if it dates from say 1940s or so. Would be by far the oldest thing I own
