You sure it's not 3/4"? Sears did list 1" drive tools in the Craftsman catalogs, but they were made by Wright, and in their descriptions said "Not Craftsman." It could also be post USA Craftsman or something they tried for a short time.
Pics would help too.

I agree with Lesserstore, are you sure you don't have 3/4" tools? I'm assuming you are talking about chrome plated hand tools. Most Craftsman tools have the part numbers stamped on each tool, so posting a couple of the numbers or posting a few pics for us to see would help us better help you identify and date your items.

I'm not sure exactly how long they sold 1" drive tools out of the Craftsman catalog. I attached two images I took from my Craftsman 1977 tool catalog. I don't see any 1" drive stuff listed in my 1969 or 1994 Craftsman tool catalogs, so 1" drive tools were likely only sold through Craftsman for a decade or two max. As Lesserstore mentioned, the images I posted say "Not Craftsman" in the descriptions.

I have seen a few ebay listings for Craftsman Industrial 1" drive impact sockets, but their industrial line didn't last very long, so I don't know what sort of a selection they offered under that banner or if they sold any chrome plated 1" drive sockets sets. Here's an example of an impact set from the more recent Craftsman Industrial line-

I don't remember any 1" in the stores when I worked there in the 90's. 3/4 definitely was though.

What info are you looking for? Guessing that you are trying to find a value for sale?

I once had some Craftsman 1" drive impact sockets. They were part of the so-called industrial line, through places like Grainger.
