After a year of sitting around, I finally made the display for my c.1925 Kraeuter wrench collection.  I'm not 100% satisfied with the large amount of open space on the right side so I may be adding some pliers from the same vintage.  Thoughts?

Looks great!!

Have seen quite a number of Kraeuter pliers.    You have double the number of wrenches I have, and a really nice display.

I like it. I always thought Kraeuter would be nice to collect but I don't run across them 'round here too often. Thanks

I like it but if you feel it needs something, maybe a framed factory photo from 1925 or earlier.  Or maybe a magazine ad.  I used to collect Kraeuter pliers and have quite a few.  I have two or three that I use regularly.  I was born in Newark N.J. so there's a sentimental value.

At least 5 gallons of AWESOME there!

Very nice

I've been looking for a factory photo or ad that would work but found nothing.

I think this is the cover of a 1915 catalog.

Neat display!

There was an edited image from a May 1924 POPULAR SCIENCE ad for this style KRAEUTER  on pg. 36 of the March 2021 MVWC Newsletter. (attached) It should not be too hard to use google books or the Hathi Trust to recover the full ad if you wish.

I came home with a bigboy pair of Krauter pliers last week.  Bent nose.
No. 1923-10 from 1910 to 1920, based on the look of the handle pattern.  Closely checkered with no center diamond or other embellishment.
