Thanks for the reply. I've got it in a vinegar soak now to de-rust. The retainer nos are "11.22.44". Also, I've seen some similar "Parker" oval slide types with a fixed nut in the shaft tunnel, mine has a removable nut that drops out of the bottom when the screw is removed. I'll post some...

Can any one identify this oval slide w/ 3-1/2" jaw; 6" open'g.? Chas. Parker? Age? Value? more info i.e catalog? Thanks, Edmund.

Twagler, after some further research today, I'm convinced it's a Chas. Parker. Gonna give it a good bath in vinegar and use it well. Best, Edmund.

Twagler. thanks for your reply and citing the E-bay post. That e-bay sure looks identical to mine, but without a maker's mark, I'm still curious about establishing value. Nonetheless, I am happy to add to my vintage shop/machine collection. best, Edmund.

a $3 yard sale find. Aside from rust and missing handle, all casting without breaks or damage, and acme screw/nut looks and works well.

Can anyone identify the maker of this vise??? Many thanks Edmund
