I was watching this one. It didn't go anywhere for days, then at the last minute the shoe dropped. I forget the patent on the lower wrench in the main picture but it is early and a nice wrench to have.

Ended at $637.00

Looks like 2 snipers at work. They got what they deserve. At lest one did.

It is a June 27, 1840 Hewet's patent, patent number 1659.

But are they worth $637 for the pair?

Worth....ahhh....such a difficult word to measure.

Yep, it clearly was to one person. The second place bidder thought it was worth a bit less.

I don't think so. Donnelly has one in his up coming Indy auction and I think he has it valued at $100 - $300.
