Billings & Spencer Co Odd Wrench

[AlignmachineCo]

Hi Friends,

Not new to antique tools but I haven't seen this B&S wrench before and can't find any information on it... Grok says it's very rare...

Patent pending 1871

Did you verify its sources? Last time that was posted here, it was off by an order of magnitude or three on “value” based on its (poor) understanding of GJ data.

Nope, that's why I'm here... I only consulted it because I could not find anything about it.

You’re in luck. All the info is right on it. Brand, model, patent date. Googling shows one at least one on Worthpoint having been sold.

Looks like a pipe wrench of sorts.

Edit: What length is it?

Yup, looked it up based on info on it... But didn't find exact match. Don't know what worth point is? It's 9" long

Worthpoint is a service that keeps track of all eBay sales. A paid subscription required. I don’t have a subscription but found the listing by Googling the information.

Cool, thank you. I don't really care about value, more interested in it's unique design and how common they are..
