Isn't that a "whale" vise-grip?
Nice haul!

That's a mother lode there for sure.

That big one marked 14 in sure has a lot of jaw travel. How big does it open up to?

That is a mighty interesting pile.   All from one stop?   Did you clean them out?    I think I spy a MAC adjustable down in there, something I never had, like I need more adjustables.   A buy like that would make a guy smile all day.   Congrats.
