    I uploaded the photo to ChatGPT and asked it to ID the mfg. It replied: "The cartoon graphic looks very much like the late-1960s to 1970s branding used by Waterloo Industries toolboxes, especially the bright orange metal cantilever and tackle-style boxes they sold under both the Waterloo name...

    Model T tools

    Model T tools

    The screwdrivers for the T and up through the early 50's Ford tractors are rare and get good money if in very good condition. They had wooden handles and many did not survive the years.
