Does any one know if or when the Crestoloy stamping ended on their adjustable wrenches?

Lou,  you probably already know that Alloy Artifacts mentions 30's thru 50's on a few of their examples.  But no specific date.

Thanks for the reply!! I did check in with Alloy Artifacts before I posted. Some of the dates also showed 1960's plus!!

 Based on my examples, it looks like the Crestoloy was dropped when they added metric measurements on the handle. The 1982 catalog mentions alloy but not Crestoloy.
