1940s Vintage Blackhawk Nugget Rachet and socket set

[kerm]

Hi everyone,
I’m going through my late grandfather’ tool collection and came across a very nice set of Blackhawk tools that are dated from the late 30s into the early 40s. Based on my research, they come from the new nugget set. I’m hoping to figure out the value of such a set, because I am unable to find any information. I’ve listed the item numbers with their dates stamps below. Thank you in advance!

Start at 4-6 hundred ? The ratchets have been hot lately. Condition always counts with me ! Any boxes ?

I would guess 3-4 hundred here. If you find the vacuum/bomb shaped box… I would say over $1000.

I would never sell it, if it was my grandfather’s. It is a beautiful set in beautiful condition.

I wouldn't be able to put a dollar value on that set if it belonged to my pop. It would never leave me.

To that end, 7/16th drive nugget sets have been pulling strong money lately. I would not be shocked to see this set roll past $400 on the flea bay.

No box unfortunately.

Thankyou for everyone’s feedback! My grandfather died in 2011 and left behind three warehouses FULL of stuff. He was an avid swap meet, flea market guy. I’m very sentimental and have tons of his personal items (including his 1930s high school gym shirt !) I feel like these tools aren’t getting the love they deserve sitting in my garage, so hopefully someone else will appreciate them more than I can.
