wizard H2052
« on: May 19, 2017, 05:38:58 AM »
so i just realized i didnt get a full photo of the wrench but here is a 'wizard H2052' and what i found interesting is that it has gills.. guess thats why its an H20 model..  stainless would have helped with the rust though.. not familiar with wizard .. anyone?

  I believe they were sold by Western Auto stores,   ???  1950's - 1960's ???

I just looked at my collection of 5 Wizard wrenches. 4 of them have the gills mark on them. The one that didn't looks like it was made by Thorsen.

Wizard is definitely a Western Auto brand but supposedly Vlchek made.

I can't say for sure who made that one wrench I have, but it sure looks like something Thorsen made. I just went and looked at it again and it may have been made by Vlchek. It is number H2294.
