I put this with some others tools in the What's it forum. I'm hoping this will get more wrench knowledge. I can't find it anywhere.

I don't have any info on it, sorry, but I do have a wrench that is almost the same. Mine doesn't have the logo but it does have the 285. Interesting.

Also found it marked V&K 285"
Only reference I can find is Vaile-Kimes Co who made well pumps beginning of the century.
They have an odd logo, but not that one...

Three marking variations of the wrench were shown together in the MVWC Newsletter a few years ago & based on the V&K marking, tentatively attributed to Valle & Kimes. Until someone finds Valle & Kimes literature picturing the wrench or finds a wrench tied to a Valle & Kimes product it is all educated guesses.

3 different ones is interesting! Wish I could figure out what the logo on mine was. I'm still searching for it. Hopefully I can come across something for all of them!

Here are my the V & K wrenches that Stan used for the MVWC Newsletter article.
