USA made Wilton drill press vise quality?

Hey everyone-
I just bought this Wilton drill press vise, made in USA, and looks to be in great shape. I paid $68 for it. I was unable to find any info online. Does anybody know if these are decent quality? My assumption is if it's old enough to be USA made, it's got to be better than current offerings.

Nice find!
Looks to be in great shape. No hints of the usual arc of shame. Some may say you overpaid a bit, but your time is worth something.

Thanks!
I paid more than I wanted, maybe more than it's worth, but I figure it's still cheaper than a new one. I learned with old motorcycles and cars to buy the nicest original example you can afford. I've ended up "upside down" in the past after repairing a basket case machine.

Absolutely!
After learning that lesson myself, I have walked away from deals where the price is zero dollars and zero cents.

If you have a need, and you didn't have to finance the purchase I think you did fine.
