Pictures came to me in email of a wrench a guy has, and he has questions about it.
How many might have been made and sold?
What is the current value?

I told him all I see in Cope- The wrench is perhaps the only wrench produced by Anderson-Bailey-Cummings Co. of Okmulgee, Oklahoma. Two patents- July 22, 1913, and June 23, 1914.

He has patent info- http://www.datamp.org/patents/advance.php?pn=1101381&id=42305&set=8

I really like to have that wrench, my last name is Anderson
Always looking for what interests me, anything early Dodge Brothers/Graham Brothers trucks ( pre 1932 or so ) and slant six / Super six parts.

Also the last name of the guy who emailed the pictures to me.

If I remember correctly there were three different manufacturers of this wrench. I have auction results of $30, $30, $50 and $70 from past Wrenching News Auctions.

Thanks, Bus! I'll pass the info along to him.
