I've enjoyed viewing your tools and the way you have chosen to display them.  I'll likely come back to your threads a few more times to try and absorb it all.   I appreciate the manner in which you seem to respect your tools.  I will admit I was taken a bit "off guard" at your first few pictures being those of MODIFIED tools.  It now seems you'd know well what "junk" is that needs to be re-purposed.

That sure doesn't look an ordinary "shop" to me.  Are you sure you don't have a museum name you'd like to "plug"?

Thanks for sharing.

 Nice display. Do you heat the shop ? I have moved my wrenchs to heated basement to prevent rust.

if it was marked "super mogul / super special" on one side, i regard it as a russell grader company wrench, marked like u say i consider it a caterpillar wrench.  caterpillar bought russell in 1928 and russell started the mogul grader line in 1924, but cat continued to build the mogul and call them mogul till 1930.  the way i reason this, is i had a caterpillar mogul grader operators /parts book circa 29-30, the wrench shown didn't read "super mogul / super special", only what yours reads.  good luck & thanks.

Great display of old Tools!! are all the tools in one room?  Are you planning on opening a Tool museum?
maybe a 360 video would blow are minds & drool our mouth, post it on Utube, see how many hits?.
guess 30+ years working at auctions has its benefits. (always right place at right time.)
