Diamond D Crescent style adjustable wrench
« on: October 05, 2017, 10:49:58 PM »
One side:     6IN.    DIAMOND D    DROP FORGED STEEL   (Logo is D in a small diamond)

Other side:      6 IN.      DUNBAR DROP FORGE CO     CHICAGO U.S.A.

Looks old.  Plain steel.  Hex style jaws.  Hanger hole is not reinforced.

According to the 1921 Automobile Trade Directory, they were located at 2506 W. 21st Street, Chicago.

Any thoughts?

Founded in 1918 by H. A. Harris, C. G. Lundy and H. Crown, who all left Union Drop Forge to found the company.  Looks like they lasted until May of 1924.

Oh, that's great.  Maybe OJ's attorneys should have used this as a legal precedence and saved him a few years in the can.
