A wrench display from a hardware store, circa 1910.
Wish I lived in this town.....
This one is in the top right corner, I have never seen this one before...
Looks like a Bullard Wrench, Patent July 7, 1903, October 27, 1903, Schulz # 661, Patent # 742,389

Ha!
That's sure it..
Made right down the street from me, you would think I had seen one before...go figure..
Bullards have been found in Sizes 0, 1, 2, 3 & 4. The No. 4 is a 4 lb.13 oz. brute. I have yet to find a 3. Anybody got one?
Does anyone know what the pegs in the cabinet look like and how they are attached?

There is a No. 3 in the upcoming Wrench Auction in York, Nebraska. It's Lot No. 762.
There is also a small No. 0 (Lot 680)

Cabinet pegs in the picture almost look like all-thread with acorn nuts to cover the ends of the all-thread.
On it, Bus. Thanks
>Cabinet pegs in the picture almost look like all-thread with acorn nuts to cover the ends of the all-thread.
Agreed. In the center of the top pic is an empty peg, you can see what looks like a fender washer against the board......
Could plausably be say 4" studs threaded at the ends I suppose also....
Whatever they are, there is some weight on some of them :P
