Sticker that was on it said it was from the early 60's.

Any contents?  Sears had quite a line of Happi-Time tools & toys.    It could have been 50's as well as early 60's.  great find!  I'm certain that I would have taken it home.

Nothing inside, not even a tray. They wanted $12, but 1/2 price was better.
And don't you think I didn't dig around in that half price booth :-).

I had a toy tool set as a child. I believe mine was called HANDY ANDY. It had real metal tools and a metal box. Nowadays the tools would be plastic as well as the box.

That would be the one for me except my box was red with white lettering. Those were great looking wrenches

Id like to see the rest of the set if you have it
