The one with the knurling In the middle could old snap on or MTF (Milwaukee Tool Forge). If is snap on it will have an S and O stamped on top of each other near the drive end of the socket. The other sockets are hard to say.

thanks r, good call! went out and wire brushed that 1 with the middle knurling and it is a snap on, the only other mark i found is what looks like an 8. date chart 1928? there was a couple other misc snap on a few old looking sk's a bunch of craftsman. any clue on that jack (pretty neat, couldn't leave it). thanks, agian

I believe so on the snap on date being 1928. Is it 1/2 drive or 5/8?. As far as jacks are, I don't know jack about jacks.

Looks like there's something forged into the base of the jack? Ask Hi-Ball, he'll know.

The other sockets look like New Britain's None Better brand.
hi all
that old snap on is a little odd. no size marked? it is 1/2dr. and that jack. i found one online and the seller called it a bumber jack. i don't think i would put that kind of weight on it? the markings on the base say's "made in usa" and a #2. thanks bill300d, i think you nailed it on those unmarked sockets. i look on the alloy artifacts site (new britain) and they're what was described. thanks again for all of the feed back
