I believe it but I just dont see it
Always looking for what interests me, anything early Dodge Brothers/Graham Brothers trucks ( pre 1932 or so ) and slant six / Super six parts.

Uh oh, problem there.
The socket wrench IS NOT bullet handled, and it must be!!
Look at the breaker bar handle. That is what the handle must be.
I have a Blackhawk 7/16 here, bullet shaped.
I know this will be seen and mentioned, so be prepared.
Also the doe wrenches are not in the original bullet tool box, but added later.

Go look up the ones that sold on e-Bay, and you will see what sold and what was included.
I personally would not sell it, but with a little work, you could make it exactly like what was included in the 1951 marketing campaign that Blackhawk Tools was advertising in their efforts to eliminate the 3/8 inch and the 1/2 inch ratcheting action tools, and make their 7/16" ratcheting tools the world standard.
They bet their whole company on this philosophy, and lost!
A great gift your Uncle gave you, but it IS your choice what you do with it.   Sincerely,, mrchuck
