Went to Fairbury NE annual 4th July Flea Market this morning.
Snagged all shown below for $35.
Bought the 1/2" metric set for $25, and the rest for $10.
The adjustable is Lectrolite brand, but I left it in there with the ties to S-K.
Lots of S-K tools in this area, but I've never seen socket holders like these,
and I really like them.

I keep getting upload errors whenever I try to attach a pic.
Idk why, using same process as always.

I think I saw that New Britain thing...sort of a small breaker bar / driver handle looking thing? The socket end is splined where it pivots?

The admins told me that the upload error is a bug in the site. Reduce the size of your pictures and they will upload fine.

Yeah, i thought it was a breaker bar at first but it also rachets, i beleive is the correct verb.

The new britain will ratchet from 90 to 45 degrees and is solid when streight like a screw driver type spinner. Or its just broken.

To switch from tight to loose the collar on the neck rotates about 180 degrees

That photo also shows the internal ratching splines well.

The hand plane isn't too special. Stanley #5 in so so condition.

I've got an S-K socket set holder like the one the OP posted. I don't much like it--the sockets spill out at the slightest excuse.
