Check out this old RAT!

[VWMAN]

I had forgot i had this.... until I went out to the garage to look for something else. Had it about a yr or so... I tried to find some info on it last yr, but didnt turn up much. I was my grandpa's so its old. Company on the tool and wooden box says " Billings & Spencer Co". any ideas how old and when did they make ratchets like this?

could be from the 20's. possibly earlier.

Thats friggin sweet. Looks real early 1900's. Very nice amd very complete. Not of much use today but deffinatly nostalgic. Id buy it if i saw it forsale. Just clean it up and display it.
