wrench names

[bird]

Is anyone familiar with these companies?  W and M co.  and Leonard/ kelvinator?

[rusty]

Well, you do have interesting tools stashed away ;P

W&M is a mystery maker, presumed to be Mossberg...

Kelvinator made refridgerators, that a 'reefer' ratchet ...

(Hard to tell who made it from this side, Bonney perhaps?)

Edit: Kelvinator might be a brand name now that I think on it)

This made me open for sure

I don't think the refrigeration ratchet is a Bonney, but it sure looks like a Walden-Worcester.

I have a Walden one, which is marked walden. The only marks are kelvinator and leonard...... does anyone know leonard?
cheers,

A gentleman by the name of Charles H. Leonard founded a company in 1881 that eventually came up with cleanable refrigerators. Being that is a reefer wrench, I'd bet that there's a connection. That's my opinion, anyway.
