CM set found - last year

[Discherd]

A friend of mine keeps telling me to post pictures of my finds - so I am finally getting around to it. I found this set last summer at an estate sale, thought it was cool, so I picked it up for $20. I am not sure it's complete and still haven't cleaned it up yet(not that it needs much cleaning). I also would like to thank everyone for the posts they have made, I have enjoyed reading and have learned a lot.

You did very well. That would EASILY sell for $50-100 on Ebay. Maybe more.

Another picture, don't know why it won't upload multiple pictures.

Place all your files in the "manage attachments" and hit upload once to load them all. Then submit your post.

That only works on desktops. Mobile devices don't upload multiples because the pics all upload with the same name, so the site thinks you're trying to upload multiples of the same pic and only accepts the first one.

Thanks for posting that info. I thought it was just me doing it wrong.

Discherd I cannot see any detail there because the images are so small.
What letter/letters are stamped on those pieces, and what is the drive size?

That is a truly gorgeous C series set.

doesn't really matter much about "complete" in that condition.

you found what's probably the "holy grail" of Craftsman 1/4" collectors.

Beerman's appraisal above is probably a bit shy of market value.

 

[Discherd]

I thought I would add to my existing post a couple more early sets (which I have seen on here many times).
1- a 1/2" drive Circle-H
2- a 1/4" drive BE

Seems I can't find any early craftsman in 3/8 - but I am still looking.

Trying some new pictures.

Wonderful! The 9/32" set appears to be complete.

I'd be looking for the missing sockets on the 1/2" set; it would be fantastic to complete that set too!
