Can anyone tell me anything further concerning the wrench and does anyone have one. I would like one for my collection. Thanks
I know its a lousy scan but its a B.W from a 28 catalog and I cant do much better

SnapOn (as BluePoint) also made one in 1928, model 51
So now you need 2 ;P

Snap-On's eventually expanded into a line of brake wrenches with the pecular head angles (I suspect originally a slight modification from the textile wrench pattern)
I have not seen a Bonney one (yet)

hmmm - I think I had my hands on one today. I picked it up inspecting it for a while. It was rough, and seems one end was nearly ground down looking / perhaps modified. I didn't see a makers marking. As I said, it looked rough but on the chance that was it I will go back by there if you're interested. It was a Pawn - not likely to be picked up there.

Thanks for the link, neat to know there was competition, I would however only like to have this wrench at this point.
I would like to display the wrench with the add.
Yes ( thanks Derek ) if anyone runs across one I would take it. Not willing to pay big money, only a few dollars at most.
