The longest I have possessed any tools is my Craftsman 10 Piece Combination Set No 4496.
Bought in either 1962 0r 1963.

There were NO FIXTURES at the store.
Later I had another "in stock" claim for item that was not in stock at the local...
Are my extensions old enough for vintage?
I have a 208-FX Set that was Never Used still in the box.
Would have been bought between 1974 and 1978.
The shanks are not knurled like the newer sets.
Would the condition and lack of knurling be of interest to a collector?
I do understand that...
