I believe that's a Cole.I have no idea who made it, but my sister gave me the same model vise this morning. It might be a local brand as she lives only a few minutes from you in Westmont.

You might be right Bill. It's in the style of Cole but there are certainly differences. Perhaps an earlier patent or a foreign copy?If that is a Cole it's not like any I've seen before.
Is that a legless blacksmith vise?

I've had a Cole, that is not a Cole unless it's a different model.
This is the common Cole with all the attachments.
