Estate Score

[Rewind97]

Went to an estate sale across the street from my house. Didn't expect much it was the estate if an elderly, very sophisticated lady.

But look what I found! It's in perfect shape, doesn't look like it's ever been used.

Anyone got an approximate age of it?

I don't have a clue on the age but that's badass!

Nice drill.

Craftsman used that logo from 1960 to 1973. I would lean closer to the 1906s side of that span.

Ooh That's tool **** right there, and already polished! nice score.

I'd say 60's.
My father had one of that model.

 

[The Cobbler]

NICE! and $23.99 to boot.
I agree with "60's" crowd for age .

That is a nice find. I usually pass those old power tools up as I have so many , but I would have grabbed that too.

Good score and I thought I was doing good today when I picked up an old air drill for $5.00 and my compressor is down so I have no way of seeing if it works...LOL the guy said oh sure it works the chuck turns by hand.

Nice drill op.

Picture of the old drill I bought today.

I bought a 1/4" drill like the OP brand new from Sears in 1972. That may have been late in their production, but it was still in the store then.

 

[Rewind97]

Guess I did ok for $10!

1971 catalog, pg 36. The 1969 catalog doesn't list it, don't have a 1970 to check. Price in 71 was listed as 36.99, matching 9-1135 to the catalog.

Nice. You could use that for a mirror. And no rust on the chuck?

Being reversible and variable speed is a big plus. Nice score.

I have a similar drill, was given to me as a kid, new. My guess is 1967-68

seriously? I guess I must be getting old. had one threw it away... it was my Grandpas... POS ! no torque... no reverse... good for pre drilling 9/16" holes in sotwood.... are you guys high?? why is this cool? I picked up a craftsman corrugated sole plane today.... plastic handles ... looks like it was used one time in the early 70S.... it is also a POS but at least it is usefull...

If you have to ask why it's cool, you could never understand.

nice find, and it still has its box.

Not a bit of rust! It must have been stored indoors.

If you would have looked, it is a reversible drill.

Found an ad from 1970 January in a Popular Science. Page 55!

Awesome. I found one a few years ago. Nearly as nice, it still has the sticker though.
