Info on vintage Mac tools nut driver set!

[thecody59]

Hi guys can anyone tell me anything about this Mac tools nut driver kit? It is not in the best shape but it is all there including the pouch it came in. Is this the Mac tools tool brand we all know about? I couldn't find this kit online so any help would be awesome thank you!

My apologies, I had typed out a more extensive reply but had timed out on my login so lost everything when I hit submit, which led me to my abbreviated reply.

I have no pouch and a set of 6 (7/32 to 3/8, so I am probably missing the 3/16). On one of the large flats of the handle is stamped: XceLite
PATENT APPLIED FOR

on the other handle flat is: PARK METALWARE CO. INC.
7 - 7/32
ORCHARD PARK, N.Y.

The numbers in the middle change by sixteenths: 8 - 5/16 and so on.

About 70 years ago my father got these second hand with a lot of other tools that were 90% "MAC" brand.

My daughters will be here in July so I will get all knowed up on taking and posting pictures and become a better contributor.
