Friday afternoon yard sale finds, everything for $2. The Marwedel wrench has no size markings and seems thin to me. The Snap-On socket is an odd shape and has the part number IP 200, I couldn't find anything on that. The rest of the lot is a mixed bag of marked and unmarked, one of the pressed steel ratchets is an Indestro, and the 1/2 inch drive 11/32 socket just has the Hinsdale forge mark on it. The prize for me is the 6 point flex knuckle, I needed that to finish a set.

I think the Snap On is an early impact socket and the Marwedel wrench is probably C F Marwedel, an industrial supplier from Cal., but don't know who made it.
A person who could really read human minds would be privileged to gaze on some correct imitations of chaos.
