Sheffy wrench - "Pat. Jan 21 1896, Chicago HDW MFG CO"

I can't find a lot of information on this one.  Does anyone have one?

Here's a little info. The patent is 553,362. By Jay K. Sheffy.
Interestingly, yours seems to be a closer match to the patent than the one shown on datamp....

Datamp also does not note CHM as a maker....interesting

Sheffy seems to have gotten distracted from wrenches later...
(But notice who is distributing them )
